Should you convert OGG to MP3?
OGG files from games, Android or open-source apps won’t play in many Apple apps, editors or car stereos. MP3 plays everywhere.
Fine when a player or app needs MP3. Converting between two lossy formats compresses the sound a second time, so match or exceed the original bitrate to keep the loss inaudible.
MP3 also plays in more places: every phone, computer, car stereo, speaker and app.
OGG is open-source lossy audio, common in games and on Android; MP3 is the most compatible lossy audio format ever made. Use MP3 when you don’t know what will play the file: cars, old players, podcasts hosts and upload forms all take it.
How to convert OGG to MP3
- 01
Add your OGG
Drop your OGG file onto the box, or click to choose it. It is read from your disk and stays there.
- 02
Check the settings
The output is already set to MP3. Change the bitrate if you want to; the defaults suit most files.
- 03
Save the MP3
Press convert and save the MP3. Several files come back together as a ZIP.
What changes when OGG becomes MP3
Two rounds of compression
Each lossy encode throws away a little more. A OGG at 128 kbps converted to MP3 at 192 kbps sounds like the original; converted at 96 kbps it can turn swirly and dull.
The size stays about the same
OGG and MP3 are close in size for the same content, so do this for compatibility rather than to save space. OGG: Similar to or slightly smaller than MP3. MP3: About 1 MB a minute at 128 kbps, 2.4 MB at 320 kbps.
This page is put together from our notes on each format, choosing only what is true of OGG and MP3, so every pairing states the same facts the same way. How these pages are made.
Why it doesn’t upload
Recordings are often private: interviews, voice notes, unreleased music. Your browser can decode and encode audio itself, so there is no reason to send it anywhere.
How to check for yourselfWorth knowing
- About the OGG. The .ogg extension can hold Vorbis, Opus or FLAC audio, so one OGG plays in a player and the next doesn’t.
- About the MP3. Converting a low-bitrate MP3 to 320 kbps makes it bigger without making it sound any better; what was thrown away is gone.
- MP3, WAV, M4A, OGG, Opus and FLAC are converted by your browser directly. WMA, AMR, APE, AC3 and the other specialist formats use the FFmpeg engine, a one-time 31 MB download.
Questions
Does converting OGG to MP3 lose quality?
MP3 is lossy, so a little is discarded, but at the default bitrate the difference is inaudible for nearly everyone.
Will an MP3 play in my car or on my phone?
MP3 opens everywhere: every phone, computer, car stereo, speaker and app.
