You can use Switch Sound File converter. The FAQ on the files types
supported, which includes a link where you can download the program, is
at http://www.nch.com.au/switch/kb/747.html. This is a 14 day free
trial, but after the 14 days is up, it'll still work in a limited
fashion, but converting from MP3 files won't be effected.
I personally wouldn't be too quick to convert your MP3 files, unless
you're desperate for space. there hasn't been a media player--to my
knowledge--that hasn't supported MP3 files, and I doubt this will happen
any time soon. Furthermore, there will always be programs to convert
from MP3 (there are just too many of them out there right now) to other
file types, so you could just wait until this is needed.
Also you won't be improving the quality of your music, and in fact, you
may be introducing artifacts. If you're looking for a smaller footprint
with better quality, you'd have to go back to your original source.
For my part, I'm still ripping music into the MP3 file format. I'm no
audiofile, and the convenience of MP3 just can't be beat. I know I can
play it anywhere. Note that I have been toying with the idea of
switching file formats, but I haven't settled on a new format yet, and
I'm not in any hurry.

Hi All, I have over three terrabytes of mp3 files and am thinking of
the future when these types of files will not be used any more. What
program should I get to convert mp3 to the newer formats. I
currently use soundforge 9.e , or adobe audition 3.0 to do batch file
conversion from cda to mp3 or wav format.
Any informationwill be greatly apppreciated.
