Questions

Why convert MP3 to AAC?

MP3 is the format that plays on absolutely everything. AAC is the modern lossy format, better than MP3 at the same size. Converting is how you move a file from the first situation to the second.

What will the AAC file be?

AAC at 192 kbps, as a raw .aac stream.

Does converting MP3 to AAC lose quality?

A little, because both are lossy: the MP3 file was already compressed, and AAC compresses again. At this setting it is rarely audible, but keep the original if you may need to convert it again.

Does converting lose quality?

Going to a lossless format never does. Going to a lossy one always does, though usually not audibly at the settings used here.
