    Mp4 to Mp3 Converter?
    After looking at the file of the song I wanted to use, it says it's an .m4a

    So I guess my new question would be, can I convert that into an mp3? And what exactly is a m4a?
    ----------
    Old question:
    Does anyone know where I can find a mp4 to mp3 converter?
    I've tried looking on download.com but I haven't found anything.

    I need one because Windows Movie Maker doesn't allow me to import mp4 files.

    I assume you are aware a mp4 is a video + audio file... and a mp3 is purely an audio file.

    I did not!

    So that would mean there is no converter?
    Oh geez.

    THe m4a isn't even a mp4 file. But a simple search found this. Hope it will do what you are after. And its free from a reputable source.

    There is also a very good one that starts as a trial and then reverts to free after a bit, called dbpoweramp music converter. Their page also links to extra codecs for handling other formats and there is also an all in one bundle of codecs you can get.
