Who: Zamzar
What: Online file conversion
Where: http://www.Zamzar.com
How Much: Free
File size, online storage, etc.
Basic $7/month
Pro $16/month
Business $49/month
Why: I needed to edit a video file but for some reason my software would not open the file (it’s supposed to) so I was in a bind.  I stumbled across this tool via a friend on Twitter (Thanks, @DeniseCaronQuin) and it worked beautifully in four steps.

2. Select the file format to convert to
