Convert those audio files

From the suggestion box comes praise for a freeware audio conversion program called Switch:

It’s a great piece of software because if it doesn’t have the codec you need to convert the file, it will download it on the fly. I love it.

In a brief tryout, we found it simple to use. Add the files you want to convert, decide which format you want, and click on the Convert button. You can choose one of 16 output formats, ranging from .aiff through .mp3 to .wpl — each of which has its own encoder options. You can set preferences for conversion and overwriting. And, of course, you can play the files to hear what the sound like.
