Chrome 81 mimetype change to file upload of audio/mp3

Prior to Chrome 81, when posting an audio file from a file input would result in a mimetype of audio/mp3.

As of Chrome 81, the mimetype is now audio/mpeg.

I can't see anything in the release notes, so questions:

UPDATED

Answers to the above:

Which one is correct?

audio/mpeg is referenced in the RFC - so this should be used.

This looks to be the case in chrome 81 as per the following commit: chromium/chromium/src/842f46a95f49e24534ad35c7a71e5c425d426550

Commit message reads as follows:

Use audio/mpeg instead of audio/mp3 for .mp3 files

audio/mpeg is used instead of audio/mp3 in safari and firefox for .mp3 files, as defined in this rfc: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3003

Good find though.
