Best Practices
Follow these guidelines for optimal AAC to OGG conversion results.
Quality Considerations
- Use 128-192 kbps bitrate for good quality and file size balance
- OGG maintains quality better than MP3 at lower bitrates
- Higher bitrates (256-320 kbps) provide near-lossless quality
- Consider your target platform and storage constraints
- Test the converted OGG quality before finalizing
When Not to Convert
- Don't convert if Apple device compatibility is required
- Keep AAC for Apple devices and modern systems
- Avoid conversion if file size isn't a concern
- Don't convert for systems requiring AAC specifically
