Developer’s Description

Convert M4A/AAC into MP3/WAV format easily by drag and drop.

The race of audio formats has never ended or slowed down. Quite the opposite, it's just revving up and often confuses people by the variety of formats they have to choose from. So far, MP3 has been the most popular format in the world, but Apple's iTunes is catching up quickly with their M4A/AAC music due to the astounding sales volumes of their multimedia gadgets and the popularity of their online music distribution services. If you would like to be able to easily convert M4A/AAC music into MP3 and are seeking a simple, fast and affordable tool, Free M4A to MP3 Converter should be your first candidate for a permanent place in your software arsenal. The name of the software speaks for itself - it's free and narrowly focused. It allows you to convert m4a to MP3, convert AAC to MP3/WAV and listen to the converted music with the help of the built-in player. Using the program is a child's game - just browse your computer for m4a and aac audio, add the necessary files to the conversion list (or simply drag them from the Explorer and drop onto the working area of the application), specify the output location and the output audio parameters and click the "Convert" button on the toolbar. Free M4a to MP3 Converter also supports M4B files, which are usually used for audio books, so you won't have any problems converting this rather rare format into MP3, which can be played on virtually any audio device these days. If your original m4a or AAC audio had any tags with song-related information, they will be preserved as well, as the software supports tag inheritance during conversion. The program is currently available in 11 languages that you can switch on the go. For a free, stable and fast M4A conversion tool, look no further than Free M4a to MP3 Converter. Offering a functional minimum of features, it is perfect for what it was created for.

Works like a charm
cyanna01September 4, 2016
Pros
just moved 43Gb worth of m4a from itunes to windows. installed this app, pointed it to the folder with all the downloads and clicked convert. That's it. I am listening to the first few converted files as I type this
Cons
none. really. there's an add banner at the top of the software but all you need to do to remove that is to register on the developer's website
Summary
does exactly as it says on the tin. not sure why that first review said it didn't work, sounds like a bad install. glad I didn't believe them...
SIMPLY DOES NOT WORK
bruboomooSeptember 3, 2016
Pros
None. It will not work at all so how can there be any pros?
Cons
Um wont work!
Summary
Every time I open this it just says not responding after like 10 seconds. Complete waste of time.
Nice useful app
Mercutio82May 6, 2016
Pros
Very easy to use, does exactly what it promises (I converted dozens of m4a and m4b files to mp3). Supports high mp3 bitrates (up to 320 Kbit/s).
Cons
Some ads, which can be disabled. Cannot blame a free app for that, though, it's really useful and nice.
Summary
Junk on the street
kidkj2000February 5, 2016
Pros
Absolutely nothing
Cons
Adds an annoying sound at the beginning of every converted file.
Summary
Converts m4a to mp3... no problems!
HudatminJanuary 31, 2016
Pros
Easy to use. Most file types supported. No frills* (subjective) It's Free!
Cons
Limited bitrate options when converting to mp3, but adequate for most users. Dated interface, lacks options for power users. No frills* (subjective)
Summary
Did exactly what I needed to do, which was to convert some m4a files to mp3. As for the program not working at all the previous reviewer must be technically illiterate as it installed without issue and worked exactly as I would have expected for a free conversion tool and saved to designated folder just fine.
doesnt work
dean messhamNovember 10, 2015
Pros
NONE AT ALL SADLY
Cons
would not convert anything or even play broken program waste of time
Summary
Doesn't work.
Lady_44October 1, 2015
Pros
None. It doesn't convert.
Cons
It doesn't convert anything. After fully installing and running the program, I clicked 'convert' and it just directs you to download the "updated" version on their site. Seems kinda fishy, eh? I had just downloaded this one. Shouldn't it be current? I'm not downloading offsite. VERY sneaky.
Summary
DO NOT download. Guaranteed flood of malware
misterjessegrantMay 21, 2015
Pros
There are no pros, the editors rating is infuriating. Literally a system killer once installed.
Cons
installed at least 8 pieces of software, complete with their own branching malware, without permission. I spent a fruitless hour trying to stay a step ahead... cancelling processes, shutting down services, uninstalling programs that happily reinstalled themselves with not a peep from windows defender. This was a BRAND NEW install of windows 8.1. This was very lucky for me as I ended up having no choice but to reinstall my OS in order to get rid of all the malicious crap. malewarebytes successfully got rid of 197(!) pieces of maleware but did not catch everything. This is the last piece of software I will ever download from a cnet-owned website. This once trustworthy company should be completely ashamed.
Summary
Malware installed
May 8, 2015
Pros
No pros at all. Downloaded from site not cnets installer
Cons
Installed 2 programs and hijacked chrome browser. Beware if you install it. They also said if you register an email for their newsletter you can get a code to take away ads. I waited 2 hours and still nothing.
Summary
I wouldn't buy software from this company if it was for a $1 donation. I am very saddened by CNET's approval of such software.
HOLY MALWARE
monkbrApril 26, 2015
Pros
WOW it came with an additional program I had never given permission to be installed!
Cons
And that program's name iiiis malware!
Summary
Not just couldn't did what it told it could, it's also installed malware. WOW
