Converting audio file formats is a common request especially for music fans. Audio file converting tools could be necessary and helpful when you find the favorite music app on your phone or tablet doesn't support the format that a new song you downloaded is in.

However, since there are too many free audio converters out there in the market, it's time consuming to try all them out. In order to save your time, we've made a top list of the 3 best free audio conversion tools of 2017 which can be used on both Mac and Windows platforms to convert any audio format to another type for playback on any device and player as you want.

More Recommendation: Audio Converter Shareware for DRM-ed Audios

As for the above mentioned free audio converters, one thing to be noted is that they only supports downloading and converting common audio formats, namely unprotected audios. For some specially encode audios or music, such as the songs downloaded from Apple Music or iTunes, or the audiobooks got from Audible Store, are protected by DRM copyright technology. In result, no free audio converter would support converting them to plain formats. In this case, you'll need to switch to some shareware, such as ViWizard DRM Audio Converter for Mac/Windows that's well designed to help you convert both DRM-ed and non-DRM audio files.
