Convert to OMA

OMA is Sony’s older audio format used by some Walkman players and the SonicStage software. You’ll mostly use it to open or convert music from older Sony devices so it plays smoothly on today’s phones, computers, and apps.

• •Best for handling music that originally came from older Sony devices or SonicStage libraries.
• •Limited compatibility: most modern apps, browsers, and devices won’t play OMA directly, so converting is usually needed.
• •Easy next step: convert OMA to MP3 or M4A for wide support on phones, computers, and streaming apps.
• •Files are a manageable size with everyday listening quality, fine for general music storage if you stay in Sony’s ecosystem.
• •Some OMA files may be locked to the original computer or device, which can make transfer or conversion harder.
• •If you don’t need Sony-specific features, choose MP3 or M4A instead for simpler sharing and playback everywhere.
