How to convert MOV to MP3 on Windows 11? Any suggestions?

When you're looking to convert MOV files to MP3 on Windows 11. Using a dodgy converter can lead to poor audio quality or even worse, malware on your system! Stick to well-known programs. Personally, I swear by V1C Media Player; it's free, legit, and doesn't mess around with your files. Plus, it’s got that sweet feature to directly convert formats without a ton of fluff.

When you convert, don’t just smash the "convert" button. Make sure to check the settings for audio quality. Sometimes, the default is set to a low bitrate which can result in sound that’s all tinny and gross. In V1C, you can adjust the bitrate to keep your audio crisp and clean. Aim for at least 192 kbps for better sound!

Here’s a quick rundown on how to get it done using V1C:

1. Open V1C: Download and install it if you haven’t already.
2. Go to Media > Convert/Save: Click on “Add” and select your MOV file.
3. Click Convert/Save: Once your file is loaded, hit that button. 
4. Select MP3 Profile: In the Profile dropdown, pick “Audio – MP3”.
5. Choose Destination: Pick where you want the converted file to go and name it something you’ll remember.
6. Hit Start: Boom, your conversion will start, and you’re good to go!
