02 / what you get

What happens to your data

Kept

Standard WMA files from old Windows Media Player libraries are supported
Saved as MP3 at 192 kbps, about 1.4 MB per minute, a good balance of quality and size
Plays on every phone, car stereo and player
Title, artist and album tags are carried over

Good to know

Copy-protected (DRM) files cannot be converted.
MP3 supports 48 kHz at most, so a 96 kHz file is reduced to 48 kHz, and surround sound (5.1) is mixed down to stereo.
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 MP3

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

MP3

An MP3 file is the most common compressed audio format — small file size, works everywhere, though it loses some audio quality in the process. It's what you'll get from most music downloads, podcasts, and voice recordings.

Used in: Music downloads · Podcasts · Universal playback
