Why would you want to convert to mp3? This ain't 2003, there's way better formats to use than that.
Can you give some examples to read up on?
Depends on whether you want lossless or lossy. For lossy, OOG Vorbis is the way to go if you want to support open source. If you don't care about that, WMA is a proprietary format alternative. Both WMA and Vorbis have better quality than MP3, with equivalent file sizes. I use Vorbis myself, because it's free.
If you want lossless, idk, because I don't fuck with that.
Just a small question let us say i wanted to convert all of my mp3 files into oog or wma. Will i loose some quality or it is fine (my files are around 128kbps)??? Because better quality for same size seems like a switch i would do. (I will convert with AIMP)
If they're already MP3 then don't bother. Can't make it sound better after it's already been compressed. You'd need to get source material then convert to whatever format.
There's nothing wrong with MP3 though. Hell most people are listening to streaming like Pandora and Spotify and don't complain.
Vorbis has better compression than MP3, so you won't lose any quality, and the files should be a little smaller.
