Questions

About converting FLAC to MP3.

What quality does the MP3 have?

By default the MP3 uses a variable bitrate at high quality, which averages around 190 kbit/s for music. You can also choose a fixed bitrate between 96 and 320 kbit/s.

How much smaller is the MP3?

An MP3 at 320 kbit/s is usually about a third of the FLAC size, and lower bitrates make it smaller still.

What happens to surround sound in my FLAC?

MP3 holds at most two channels, so surround audio is mixed down to stereo.

Is the FLAC to MP3 converter free?

Yes. You can convert up to 50 files a day for free without creating an account.

What happens to my files after the conversion?

Your files are processed on servers in the EU and deleted automatically after 24 hours.
