For example, Microsoft waveform-audio files have a form type of “WAVE”.

“LIST” chunks also include an additional field in the first four bytes of the data field. This additional field contains the list type of the field.
The list type is a four-character code identifying the contents of the list. For example, a “LIST” chunk with a list type of “INFO” can contain “ICOP” and “ICRD” chunks providing copyright and creation date information. The following illustration shows a “RIFF” chunk that contains a “LIST” chunk and one other subchunk (the “LIST” chunk contains two subchunks).
