Batch Settings
Quality reduction ahead
AIFF is uncompressed, meaning every bit of data is preserved. MOV uses lossy compression — some data is permanently discarded to reduce file size. At high quality settings the difference is usually imperceptible, but the original data cannot be recovered.
Some metadata may not survive
Your AIFF file may contain ID3v2, AIFF chunks metadata. MOV has limited or no support for these metadata types. Location data (GPS), camera settings, and color profiles may be stripped during conversion.
What compression artifacts to expect
MOV lossy compression can produce codec-dependent (ProRes: minimal, H.264: blockiness). At the high quality settings CocoConvert uses by default, these are usually invisible to the eye. Lower quality settings trade visual fidelity for smaller file sizes.

About AIFF to MOV Conversion
Short answer: yes, you can convert AIFF to MOV online for free, and quality is well preserved with the right settings. Just upload your .aiff file to CocoConvert, pick MOV as the output, and click Convert. The whole process takes seconds.
Now for the details. AIFF is Apple's uncompressed audio format — equivalent to WAV in quality. MOV is Apple's QuickTime container, commonly used by iPhones and professional video cameras. Converting between these two formats lets you reduce file size without visible quality loss.
Full Name: AIFF uses Audio Interchange File Format, while MOV uses QuickTime Movie. Compression: AIFF uses None (uncompressed), while MOV uses Lossy. Color Depth: AIFF uses —, while MOV uses 8–10 bits (codec dependent).
Your AIFF file is decoded and re-encoded as MOV. MOV lossy compression can produce codec-dependent (ProRes: minimal, H.264: blockiness). At the high quality settings CocoConvert uses by default, these are usually invisible to the eye. Lower quality settings trade visual fidelity for smaller file sizes.
CocoConvert runs entirely online — no software to install, no account to create. Your files are encrypted during upload (TLS), processed on isolated servers in Germany, and permanently deleted after 24 hours. It works in Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge, and all mobile browsers.
Need to convert more than one file? Free users can do 5 per hour. Pro gets 100 per hour with files up to 5 GB each.
