How do I convert M4A to WAV?

A group of moving image or MPEG-4 standard is a fourth generation container format for compressed video, sound and text, as if it were necessary for the headlines. The official extension is .mp4, although it is not possible to know what currents the MP4 file only applies from the extension. For this reason, several non -standard extensions are used to indicate content, practice popularized by Apple®. The .m4A extension is used, for example, for files that contain only sound. Since some software does not recognize the MP4 file, people often convert M4A to WAV files, the most common uncompressed sound format.
