If you spend any time moving files around online, you will inevitably eventually need to convert one file type to another. If you’re like me, you end up spending sometimes ridiculous amounts of time trying to find free conversion utilities that are not gimmicks, actually work, and are not laden with spyware and adware.
Fortunately, there is now another solution in the form of Zamzar, a free, web-based file conversion utility. Using the utility, you can convert up to 100Mb media files–including documents, music, pictures, and video–of a variety of formats into a variety of other formats. The site also allows users to download video from video hosting sites with the same 100Mb limit.
If you want more, Zamzar offers a pay service that includes file conversion up to 1Gb and up to 100Gb of online file storage.
