Why convert MP3 to FLAC?

It loses some quality with each re-encode and, at the same size, sounds worse than AAC or Opus. As FLAC it is stored losslessly and much smaller than a WAV.

About the formats

MP3, the audio that plays everywhere

MP3 compresses sound lossily, removing what the ear barely notices, so a song takes just a few megabytes.

Strengths: Any phone, car, speaker, player or program plays it, however old.

Limits: It loses some quality with each re-encode and, at the same size, sounds worse than AAC or Opus.

FLAC, compressed lossless audio

FLAC compresses audio without losing anything: it plays back exactly like the original.

Strengths: Ideal for archiving music at CD quality or better in about half the size of a WAV.

Limits: It weighs several times more than an MP3 and some simple devices do not play it.

Frequently asked questions

Is my MP3 uploaded to a server to turn it into FLAC?

No. The MP3 to FLAC conversion runs entirely in your browser, with code downloaded from this site and executed on your device. You can check it in the Network tab of the developer tools or by going offline after the page loads.

Do I lose quality going from MP3 to FLAC?

No: FLAC stores audio losslessly (any loss already in the MP3 cannot be recovered).

Is there a size limit?

Up to 2 GB on desktop and 500 MB on mobile (less on low-memory devices), and up to 12 hours of audio on desktop. If it is over, you are told before it starts.

Can I convert several MP3 files at once?

Yes. Drop as many MP3 files as you like: several are converted at the same time, depending on your processor cores, and when they finish you can download each FLAC or all of them in a ZIP.
