Questions

Why convert WAV to MP3?

WAV is uncompressed and lossless, which is why the files are enormous. MP3 is the format that plays on absolutely everything. Converting is how you move a file from the first situation to the second.

What will the MP3 file be?

MP3 at VBR quality 2 (around 190 kbps), transparent for most listening and playable on everything.

Does converting WAV to MP3 lose quality?

A little, by design - MP3 is lossy. At this setting the difference is inaudible to most listeners.

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.
