A Useful Converter

As you know, we can choose many audio, video and picture formats out there. In audio world, they are providing MP3, OGG, AAC and so on. In picture world, you can choose between JPEG, BMP, GIF, TIFF and so on. In video world, you can meet with MPEG 1, MPEG 2, MPEG 4, FLV and still so many more. This is a good news but on other hand, we can get headache to choose them. But on my daily practice, I prefer to choose just one format as my favorite format. Because, usually if I choose another format I must download its decoder or download its own player and I don’t like it.

So, I decide to find a good converter application that has ability to convert from many format to my favorite format. Then, I found it, the application is Format Factory.

Format Factory supports so many format to read. To use it, it’s very easy.

  4. Then follow the installer instruction, mostly just click Next button.
