WMA (.wma) · Max 20 MB
The converter defaults to the highest practical bitrate for MP3. For lossy output, that means 320kbps or VBR quality 0. Transparent quality for virtually all listeners.
Garbage in, garbage out. The output quality depends on your source. A 128kbps WMA file won't sound better in MP3. Start with the best source available.
AudioUtils processes everything locally using WebAssembly. The encoder runs at near-native speed. A 10-minute file converts in seconds with maximum quality settings.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why can't I play WMA files on my Mac?
macOS doesn't natively support WMA. Converting to MP3 makes your files playable on Mac, iPhone, and all Apple devices.
Is WMA better than MP3?
At lower bitrates, WMA can sound slightly better. At higher bitrates, the difference is negligible. MP3 wins on compatibility by a wide margin.
What about WMA Lossless files?
WMA Lossless files will be converted to MP3 with lossy compression. If you want to preserve lossless quality, convert to FLAC or WAV instead.
Can I convert DRM-protected WMA?
No. WMA files with DRM (Digital Rights Management) protection cannot be converted by third-party tools.
