Actually people generally use whatever extension programs use and create 
by default. I don't know anyone (althought I'm sure there is someone, 
one being the operative word) that changes all their mp3s to mpegl3 for 
mpeg layer 3 which is more precise.  Developers decide more what the 
extensions are and I think most of them would/will listen to a 
suggestion from the folks that have so wonderfully blessed us with these 
open media standards.
