Why convert AIFF to MP3

AIFF is the Mac studio's lossless format and a favourite of DJs who want tags on lossless files. Like WAV, it is large: around 10 MB per minute.

AIFF to MP3: what changes

AIFF is lossless and MP3 is lossy, so this is a one-time quality step down that is hard to hear at 320 kbps.

Keep the AIFF as your master for distribution and future conversions.
