Default Looking for app/software converter....

Looking for any free app or software that can grab ITunes library and make another directory converting all to mp3.

Itunes will let you do it one song at a time for free, but when you have a huge library.......

Your best bet would be to use ffmpeg in a script with a for loop

The ffmpeg version must have the mp3lame encoder built in though

https://ffmpeg.org/download.html

Somthing like

ffmpeg -i inputfile.aac -c:a libmp3lame -ac 2 -q:a 2 outputfile.mp3
