How to Convert MP3 & MP4 to Files With .Mid Extension
MP3 computer files are common music files that can be played on many devices. MP4 files are either sound or video files that are often used in miniature video players. With the right software, you can convert these formats into Mid files, which are much simpler audio files commonly used in cell phones. Converting an MP3 or MP4 file to a Mid file allows you to use your favorite song as your cell phone's ring tone.
