What happens to your file
M4R files are common for custom iPhone ringtones and alert tones, but not every app or device opens them. MP3 is ideal for music libraries, podcasts, car stereos, any device. All-in-One Saver converts M4R to MP3 with FFmpeg — real decoding and encoding, not a renamed file extension.
Lossy → lossy. Converting between compressed formats re-encodes the audio. Pick a bitrate equal to or above the source to avoid audible loss — re-encoding a 128 kbps file at 320 kbps won't make it sound better, but it won't make it worse either.
