Further Reading: AIFF vs M4A

An audio file with .aiff or .aif extension is a lossless audio format that contains uncompressed PCM audio data. AIFF is essentially identical to WAV, and they both keep CD quality and occupy a lot of storage space. The big difference is that WAV is more universal for most platforms and devices, while AIFF is commonly used in Apple's product line.

M4A is a MPEG-4 audio container format commonly encoded with either the lossy AAC codec or the ALAC codec. In other words, depending on the audio encoder, an M4A file can be a lossy or lossless audio file.


Final Words...

Actually, plenty of websites are capable of converting AIFF to M4A online. However, rather than ALAC, most of them only convert AIFF to AAC without the batch mode. In addition, it requires a good network connection. By contrast, I strongly recommend the desktop AIFF to M4A converter to do the job efficiently. Download it nowDownload it now and start your work!
