How to Convert Audio .GI to .MP3 on a Hard Drive
Unless needed for a specific media format, you are likely unable to play your .gi Audio Utility files on a variety of video or audio programs. ITunes, the most popular multimedia player, will not recognize this file type. Converting your files to a more adaptable, universal MP3 format is efficient and useful for playback and multimedia programming. ISkysoft Video Converter is one of the most economical options for buying a conversion program ($39 in 2009), and provides many audio and video file options.
