What happens to your data
Kept
- Standard WMA files from old Windows Media Player libraries are supported
- Saved as a raw AAC (ADTS) stream at 192 kbps
Good to know
- Copy-protected (DRM) files cannot be converted.
- A raw .aac file has no room for title, artist or album tags. Choose M4A if you want the tags kept.
- Some players show a slightly wrong length for raw AAC files and cannot jump around in them as smoothly as in M4A.
- Embedded cover art is not carried over. Only the sound is converted.
- Both formats compress with quality loss, so every conversion costs a little quality. Keep your WMA original.

AAC
