Because until recently I thought MonkeysAudio and mpc were the same

I assumed ape tags were used to tag mpc files? Am I confusing monkey
audio and mpc once again?

Monkey's Audio is a lossless codec. http://www.monkeysaudio.com/

MusePack (.mpc files) is a lossy codec, "designed for transparency". It uses ID3 and APE tags.

APE is a tagging format, that was introduced with Monkey's Audio (I think).

http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/ is a good source of information.
