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.
