Why teams trust this converter
Zero-Trust Ready
Files never leave the tab. M4A binaries live inside WebAssembly memory and are disposed of immediately after producing a WMA output.
Format-Aware Presets
We tune FFmpeg flags so M4A characteristics (color depth, metadata) persist when writing WMA deliverables.
Ops-Level Observability
Each run exposes duration, file size deltas, and CPU hints so production teams can benchmark M4A → WMA workflows.
