MEASURED · 10 OCTOBER 2026
Speed, with the conditions included.
Same 89-track input, 88 successful files. Lower preparation time is faster; browser transfer is excluded.
YouTube · 64 MiB public sample
3.418 MiB/s average; first bytes in 0.274 seconds after metadata preparation. This sample does not validate an entire ten-hour browser stream.
Single-VPS observations, not a speed guarantee. Cold audio achieved about 42.3 successful tracks/minute; cached-audio preparation achieved about 651.5/minute. Competitor speeds were not measured.
✓Original does not mean lossless
M4A is a container, commonly holding AAC from YouTube. It preserves that supplied audio stream; it does not recover a studio master.
✓No MP3 encoding step
Original delivery avoids encoding delay. Metadata lookup, upstream access and transfer still take time. See the measured sample.
✓Need MP3 for a player?
Use the MP3 converter. Compare M4A versus MP3 before choosing.

Audio file-size calculator
Estimate size from duration and bitrate. This runs on your device; no media URL or extraction is needed.
Estimate = minutes × 60 × kilobits/second × 1,000 ÷ 8. Variable bitrate, container headers and artwork change actual size. MB uses 1,000,000 bytes; MiB uses 1,048,576 bytes.
Choose original audio or MP3. Encoding at a higher bitrate cannot restore missing source detail.
