Editor's review of dBpoweramp Music Converter 12.3

• "Problem-free conversion"

• Reviewed by: CNET Staff
• Version reviewed: dBpoweramp Music Converter 12.3

This mostly standard audio utility simply converts files and rips CDs, but it works without a hitch. dBpowerAmp Music Converter has separate interfaces for extracting audio from discs and batch converting tunes. In our tests, the program showed good speed. It can even rip some protected audio CDs and includes a basic player.

It queries CD information from the Web and can automatically create subfolders and name tracks. To keep the download size small, it only includes MP3 (LAME) and WAV codecs, though you can easily download and install additional components from the publisher's site. Similar to other utilities in this genre, dBpowerAmp Music Converter lets you determine the audio quality of your new files, though it also offers an ample number of presets.

Also, unlike some competing programs, this demo will let you rip or transform as many files as you like for a full month. Most people who rip and convert audio files occasionally will find something to like about dBpowerAmp Music Converter, particularly novices.

  "Useless"

  by brike on August 28, 2007

  Pros: Easy to install.

  Cons: Good for nothing unless you buy what used to be free. Try Audacity, CDEx, Winamp, and others.

  "Doesn't do what the advert claimed"

  by PHBill on August 29, 2007

  Pros: Easy to use for formats other than M4P files.

  Cons: It does not seem to be able to do what I downloaded it for, namely to convert music downloaded from iTunes, i.e M4P files to other formats - unless I am doing somthing wrong?
