This is the audio codec (Advanced Audio Coding). It is the successor to MP3. In a Web-DL, the audio is usually stereo (2 channels) or occasionally Dolby Digital (5.1). AAC provides high fidelity at low bitrates (usually between 96kbps and 160kbps for a Web-DL). For a TV drama, this is more than sufficient. You will hear the soundtrack (composed by David E. Russo) and the dialogue clearly without massive file bloat.
From a technical perspective, Season 2 benefits from a higher budget than Season 1. The lighting design is richer, the special effects for villains like "Firefly" are much improved, and the makeup for Penguin’s rivals is top-tier. This makes the "720p Web-DL" format shine—the increased bitrate of the Web-DL captures the film grain and the neon-lit streets of the backlot set perfectly.
