02 / what you get

What happens to your data

Kept

  • Standard WMA files from old Windows Media Player libraries are supported
  • Saved as M4A (AAC) at 192 kbps, which plays on iPhone, iTunes, Apple Music and almost every modern player
  • Title, artist and album tags are carried over

Good to know

  • Copy-protected (DRM) files cannot be converted.
  • 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.

WMA vs M4A

WMA

A WMA file is Microsoft's compressed audio format, built into older Windows Media Player and once common for ripped CDs on Windows PCs. Less common today, but you'll still run into it in older music libraries.

Used in: Older Windows Media Player libraries · Legacy CD rips

M4A

An M4A file is a compressed audio format (usually AAC inside an MP4 container) used by Apple's ecosystem — iTunes, Apple Music, and voice memos on iPhone all default to it. Slightly better quality than MP3 at the same file size.

Used in: Apple Music & iTunes · iPhone voice memos · Audiobooks
