Convert a file before downloading

Media Convert is a new online service which makes it possible to convert a lot of file formats before downloading the file to your computer. All you have to do is add an url and select the input format. Select the format that you want to convert the file to and click on convert. The only restriction is that the file has a maximum size of 150 megabytes, everything above that amount will not be processed.

There are so many supported file formats that it is impossible to name them all. I try to list the most important ones. It supports the most important text formats, such as doc, txt, pdf, rtf and Open Office, many zip formats such as zip, rar and cab. It supports 17 movie formats such as avi, mpg, mov and mp4 and more than 40 audio formats.

The process itself takes some time depending on the size of the file which seems to be the major factor of course. A second option that the service offers is to upload a file and let the service convert the file for you. The time that this process takes depends of the upload speed of your internet connection.

The major advantages of using the media convert service is that you can use their service to convert a needed file into a format that you can edit and read using your computer and that you do not need to install a software to convert files anymore.
