What happens when converting AAC to M4B?
The AAC data is decoded inside your browser with WebAssembly and re-encoded to the M4B specification, so no file is ever uploaded to a server. M4B uses lossy compression: the file gets far lighter, but a small amount of fine detail is discarded in the process.
