AudioTunes - FLAC, APE, WMA Converter 4+

Very easy to use, but v. 1.5.0 still won’t let you set the bitrate of MP3s (it’s locked at 192 kbps) or alter settings for other output formats. There's no online help yet, and the properties dialog for input files only tells you what you already know. It lets you move the play-progress slider when no file is selected (it should be disabled), and track durations aren’t always displayed correctly. The most annoying thing is that the application title (as displayed in the menu bar) should just say “AudioTunes” instead of “AudioTunes - FLAC, APE, WMA converter,” which is way too long for the menu bar.

But those are all minor issues, and other than all that, it’s great! Definitely worth $2 for the ease-of-use alone, without question.

I had to figure out a way to download music from itunes to my husband’s USB memory stick for his truck stereo. This app allows me to take the music on my macbook pro and transfer it to the USB stick. iTunes would not let me download to anything but cd, no sync, nada… So it was great when I figured out I could just highlight the songs and drag them over to this app… What a great app this has been for me!

The more I use AudioTunes, the more impressed I am by it — smooth operation, easy-to-use, fast, and functionally accurate. My only question is “Why does this app not cost more?”, it’s certainly worth more than what’s being charged!
