Frequently Asked Questions
Is AAC better than MP3?
At the same bitrate, AAC generally sounds better than MP3. It's a newer, more efficient codec. But MP3 has broader device support.
Will I lose quality converting AAC to MP3?
Some quality loss is inevitable when transcoding between lossy formats. Use a high bitrate (256-320kbps) to minimize the impact.
What's the difference between AAC and M4A?
AAC is the codec (compression method). M4A is the container format that usually holds AAC audio. They're closely related — M4A files typically contain AAC-encoded audio.
When should I keep AAC instead of converting?
If your devices support AAC, keep it — it's better quality. Only convert to MP3 when you need maximum compatibility.
