Frequently Asked Questions
Does 320 kbps MP3 always sound better than 128 kbps?
The difference depends on the source audio and what you’re listening to. Both settings are limited by the quality of the original recording. For spoken audio, 128 kbps is a practical choice when file size matters.
Why did I get an M4A file?
The file extension follows the format you selected. To get an .mp3 file, choose MP3 (128 kbps) or MP3 (320 kbps) and start a new download.
Where can I find my downloaded audio?
