Dont know if this has been posted before but I went on the Itunes store and to my surprise when I downloaded the files, they where in WAV or AIFF format.

Thought this would be some good knowledge in case you were looking for a particular song or wanted something quick.
Happy digging

Is there an option to request WAV files from iTunes? I haven't seen that before.

I will tell you what I did.

I downloaded Salt N Pepa - Whatta Man for the purpose of making a ringtone on the iphone

After downloading it I right clicked on it in the download folder within Itunes to find a "Convert to WAV" option

Wondering why anyone would want to convert a compressed file to wav I looked into what an m4a was and found its an apple version of lossless compression

still seems strange to me, how can i smaller file -m4a be expanded to a wav and not have any loss in doing so... taking into account rar/iso etc, this could be possible though..

try time stretch it and post the results, idk!


photo or it didn't happen
