A possible way would be to open the file with iTunes, right click on it in song list and select ”Create MP3 version“.


If there's no such item in your context menu (the standard item is ”Create AAC Version“), you first have to select ”MP3 Encoder“ in iTunes preferences > General > ”Import Settings…“.

Why Convert MP4 to MP3?

Reason one: Some old music players don't support MP4 format but are compatible with MP3 format, so people have to extract the audio tracks from MP4 clips and then save them as MP3.

Reason two: People are intent to DIY a video. To use the music from one video in another video, they need to extract audio from video.

Reason three: Download a video in MP4 format but only want the audio of the video.
