    .MID: MIDI stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface and has been the rage among electronic musicians throughout its six year existence. It is a powerful tool for composers and teachers alike. It allows musicians to be more creative on stage and in the studio. It allows composers to write music that no human could ever perform. But it is NOT a tangible object, a thing to be had. MIDI is a communications protocol that allows electronic musical instruments to interact with each other.

    .MP2 --MPEG is a compressed audio format used on PCs, Macs and SUNs. MPEG audio quality can be respectable, achieving the minimum FM radio standard. It compresses files from various sampling rates and 16 bit resolution down to files as small as one fourteenth their original size. As one would expect, the greater the amount of MPEG compression the lower the quality of sound. The MPEG player is available from Xing in Mac, PC and SUN versions. It can be configured to automatically play MPEG files directly from NetScape under the "Preferences" menu. Again, this will only play files after loading them into RAM. If you want to play files too big for your RAM, MPEG files can also be played from your hard disk

    MID is a media file that has music instruments embedded somethings lyrics too :)

    it does not have a voice on it and it s basic on computer playing notes.

    MP2 is a media file like wma,mp3, and others . it does real time recoding of a voice, but the compression is not as common as a mp3 because mp3 has a beter compression so you get less space usage and better quanlity :)

    these links will help you to understand the difference. basically .mp2 is an audio codec used to transfer music; .mid transfers data only.

    AVI to MP4 format for your iPod, I think Aimersoft video converter is your best choose. It always works well for me. As you know, not all MP4 format can be supported by iPod, so you should convert it to "iPod MP4" format. I suggest you buy Aimersoft Video Converter because of these follow reasons: 1、Easy to use 2、Great features 3、Stable conversion speed 4、Excellent output quality. The best is you can choose the format by your player.
