Why convert MP3 to AIFF?

While converting MP3 to AIFF will not recover audio data lost during the original compression, it creates a lossless container that prevents further degradation. This can be useful for archival or when your workflow requires lossless input files.

MP3 vs AIFF: technical comparison

MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer III, introduced in 1993) uses Lossy (psychoacoustic model + MDCT) compression. AIFF (Audio Interchange File Format, introduced in 1988) uses None (PCM); AIFF-C supports compressed variants compression. MP3 browser support: Universal. AIFF browser support: Limited (Safari; partial support in Chrome and Firefox).

What happens to quality?

Converting from MP3 (lossy) to AIFF (lossless) will not recover quality that was lost during the original MP3 compression. The conversion preserves the current state of the file without further degradation. The resulting AIFF file will be larger than the MP3 original.

File size impact

Typical MP3 file size: A 4-minute song at 192 kbps: ~5.5 MB; at 320 kbps: ~9.2 MB. Typical AIFF file size: A 4-minute song at 44.1 kHz/16-bit stereo: ~40 MB. The AIFF output will be larger than the MP3 input because lossless compression cannot match the compression ratios of lossy formats.

Pro tip

For the best conversion results, always start from the highest quality source file available. Converting from a previously compressed file compounds any existing compression artifacts. When in doubt, use higher quality settings — you can always re-convert at lower quality later, but you cannot recover quality that has been lost.
