Multimedia has become pervasive in the past decade thanks to easy creation, delivery, and consumption through a vast number of devices and platforms. However, the multimedia ecosystems enabling the services we use in our daily lives can be quite complex and typically involve multiple parties, ranging from various providers (network/content/service) to device manufacturers and software developers acting on different layers and levels of an end-to-end system architecture. Interoperability among those parties is thus an important issue that must be considered when working in this domain.

The music industry is going through a transformation, and new interactive music services have emerged. It is envisaged that this new concept of digital music content will dominate the next generation of music services. A standardized file format is inevitably required to provide the interoperability between various interactive music players and interactive music albums. This issue is addressed in a new standard by the Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG), known as the MPEG-A Interactive Music Application Format (IM AF).
