Compress WMA to OGG

WMA files are already compressed, but OGG can compress further at a different bitrate. The size reduction is significant for sharing, uploading, and storage.

For email attachments, 128-192kbps works well. For music sharing, use 256-320kbps. AudioUtils lets you drop your file and convert instantly. No upload to a server, no waiting.

You won't save meaningful space — the two formats are within touching distance at 1.2–1.2 MB per minute. Re-encoding lossy to lossy compounds artifacts. Convert once, at a high bitrate, and keep the result rather than round-tripping again.

WMA files come from CDs ripped in Windows Media Player during the 2000s, when it was the Windows default. WMA has been abandoned — macOS, iPhones, most Android apps, car stereos and smart speakers all skip it — which is the whole reason this conversion exists. OGG is the destination because it plays essentially everywhere — game assets and every ordinary phone, browser, and player. File size stays in the same ballpark — both formats land around 1.2–1.2 MB per minute. Both WMA and OGG are lossy, so this pair stacks a second encode — at a generous bitrate it stays inaudible, but if a lossless original of the WMA exists, encode the OGG from that instead.
