Free WMV WMA MP3 Converter

A popular audio format is MP3, but it’s not the only one out there. Different encoders are used to create them in order to pack more quality or save disk space. However, if you really need to convert a bunch of WMA or WMV files to MP3, Free WMV WMA MP3 Converter might be what you need.

The application stores all of its features in a simple interface that sports a flat, modern design. This allows both beginners and experienced individuals to quickly accommodate with the set of features. Files you load are stored in a central list, with corresponding details like source, status, and destination.

As the name suggests, the application can process WMV, WMA, and MP3 files, with only the first two being supported for loading, while the output is always MP3. There’s an output format drop-down menu, but since there’s only one entry, it’s purpose is rather questionable.

Unfortunately, adding files can’t be done by simply dragging them over the main window. What’s more, the built-in browse dialog you depend on only lets you select one file at a time, even though batch processing is supported, and there isn’t even an option to load an entire directory at once.

You have to be completely sure about the files you want to load, because once they’re on the list, you can’t remove them. There aren’t any output quality options to configure either, which means files you load dictates the output quality. Before the process starts, there’s the possibility to change the default destination folder. When done, there’s no prompt to open the conversion location, but the main window comes with such an option.

Taking everything into consideration, we can say that Free WMV WMA MP3 Converter comes with good intentions, but most of its features aren’t exactly polished. Batch processing is supported, but it can take time to individually add all files, with no option to remove anything from the list, nor any quality options to configure for the output file.
