Processing entirely on your device — large files may take a moment.
Ogg is the standard choice for open-source software, game engines and free platforms. If your files are still in WMA format, this page is the shortcut: WMA is Microsoft’s Windows Media audio format, still found in old music collections and voice recorders.
iLoveConverter processes everything locally on your computer, which makes it private and fast: no upload wait, no server storage, no limits. Add as many files as you like — batch conversion is built in.

About the WMA format
WMA (Windows Media Audio) is Microsoft's MP3 competitor from 1999, best known for DRM-protected download stores in the 2000s. The family spans standard lossy WMA, WMA Pro (up to 24-bit/96 kHz) and WMA Lossless. On Windows it integrated seamlessly; everywhere else it required goodwill.
With Microsoft's own services having moved to AAC, WMA today is a conversion source: old music libraries and ripped CDs get converted to MP3/M4A/FLAC and the format is retired. WMA Lossless files should go to FLAC to preserve their losslessness.
+ Strengths
- ✓Native Windows playback and tagging
- ✓WMA Lossless preserves bit-perfect audio
! Limitations
- −Non-Windows support is poor
- −Ecosystem abandoned by its creator
- −DRM-legacy files may be unplayable
About the OGG format
OGG usually means the Ogg container carrying Vorbis audio — the open-source answer to MP3 from 2000. Vorbis delivered better quality than MP3 at the same bitrate and cost nothing to license, so it spread through game engines (Valve titles), open-source apps and streaming startups. It is technically a container format, so OGG files can also hold Opus or FLAC.
Hardware support was always its ceiling: phones and car systems were slow to add Vorbis, and Opus (also Ogg-based) has since surpassed it technically. Today OGG/Vorbis is best understood as a game-audio and open-ecosystem format.
+ Strengths
- ✓Royalty-free with good quality-per-bit
- ✓Native in game engines and open-source stacks
- ✓Container flexibility (Vorbis/Opus/FLAC)
! Limitations
- −Patchy hardware and car support
- −Technically surpassed by Opus

Frequently asked questions
Is this WMA to OGG converter really free?
Yes — completely free, with no sign-up, no watermark and no daily conversion limits. The site is supported by advertising.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. The conversion runs entirely inside your browser using WebAssembly, so your files never leave your device — that is what makes it instant and private.
Does it work on Windows, Mac, iPhone and Android?
Yes. Anything with a modern browser works: Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS. No software installation is required.
Is there a file size limit for WMA to OGG?
The only limit is your device's memory, since nothing is uploaded. Files up to a few hundred megabytes work fine on a modern desktop browser; very large files simply take a little longer.
Are tags like title and artist preserved?
Tag handling varies between target formats and this conversion focuses on the audio itself. For archival copies where tags matter, keep the original file; the converted copy is for playback and sharing.
Will converting WMA to OGG reduce audio quality?
If OGG is lossless, the output contains everything the WMA file contains — no further loss is added. If OGG is lossy, one recompression pass is unavoidable; the quality slider controls how much. Loss that already happened in the source file can never be undone by converting.
