AAC is the better codec on paper and MP3 is the one that never has to be explained: an old car deck, a gym treadmill, the media player bolted into a meeting room. This page re-encodes the AAC stream so the recording plays on hardware that stopped being updated a decade ago. It is processed on your own machine, with no queue and no account.

Frequently asked questions

Is this conversion a downgrade?
In codec terms yes, and in practice it is inaudible at the bitrate used. You trade a little efficiency for a file that nothing will reject.
When should I skip this conversion?
Whenever the destination already handles AAC. Every re-encode costs a fraction, so leave the file alone if nothing in the chain is actually complaining.
Do the track details survive?
Title, artist and album come across when the source carries them. Embedded cover art is not written into the resulting MP3.
