Why convert MP3 to WMA?

Converting between MP3 and WMA changes the codec used for compression. WMA may offer better compatibility with your specific devices or platform.

MP3 vs WMA: technical comparison

MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer III, introduced in 1993) uses Lossy (psychoacoustic model + MDCT) compression. WMA (Windows Media Audio, introduced in 1999) uses Lossy (modified DCT) or Lossless compression. MP3 browser support: Universal. WMA browser support: Limited (Edge on Windows only).

What happens to quality?

Converting from MP3 (lossy) to WMA (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 WMA 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 WMA file size: A 4-minute song at 192 kbps: ~5.5 MB.

Pro tip

When converting between two lossy formats, use the highest practical bitrate for the output to minimize the quality impact of double compression. If possible, convert from the original lossless source instead of from a previously compressed file.
