Audio converter

2.1 Why conversion?
Normally audio files are made by sampling the audio with a specific sampling rate and with a specific size for each sample, this is how raw files are made but, what about size?! Actually size does matter if we don't use any compression method, it would be difficult to store many of our favorites. New audio formats were introduced with compression techniques some of them are compressed loosely (quality degrades after compression) others are compressed loose less (quality doesn't degrade). Yet, compressed audio may be difficult to edit and add effects. So, we need conversion for compression, to easily edit audio files and to add a tag to the audio files.
