Hog Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 Dont know if this is in the right place, mods, move it if you want to. Is there some kind of software for making a music file a bit smaller? I want to email a song but it 8.3 megs and the email recipient can allow accept up to 8 megs. Any suggestion?Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tav Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 Lower the bit rate. So if it were 160kbps make it 128kbps. Or alternatively you could try zipping it though rarely do you get a subsantial reduction in file size. Try download.com for free mp3 convertors...is it in Mp3 btw? If it was a wav then convert it to mp3 and you are sorted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MarkJDelaney Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 Use 'dbpowerAMP Music Converter'. I think I got it from www.download.com If not there, Google it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
