How to Convert M4A to MP3?

What is the M4A Format?

M4A is the extend name of MPEG4 audio standard, the common extension of the MPEG4 files is .mp4, since Apple began to use the M4A in iTunes and iPod to distinguish from MPEG4 video, audio format, the .m4a extension has became very popular today.
M4A – MPEG 4 Audio (audio compression format)
M4A – Mpeg4 Audio

Actually, M4A is a format iTunes uses. As iTunes uses a proprietary and DRM-ed format you can’t play them on other places. You can convert them to mp3 format though, which should make them work in more places. If you bought the songs on iTunes, the easiest way I’ve seen to do this is use 3rd part software to convert them into unprotected MP3 files.

Why you Need to Convert M4A to MP3?

Reason 1 - You have an MP3 player and decided to purchase some music from iTunes. Unfortunately it will not play on your player until it is converted to MP3 or WMA format, and Windows Media Player won’t even open the M4A File Type.
Reason 2 - You downloaded a free cd and it was an m4a, but you can’t play it on your computer. Because you don’t use iTunes, you use Windows Media Player.
Reason 3 - You have iTunes and have purchased the songs, but want to use them on another one of your computers that does not have iTunes. They will not play because they are not mp3 format.
