How to Convert an MP4 to AVI in Shareware
MP4 is one of the most common video file types and was first developed by the Moving Pictures Experts Group. MP4 files are especially developed to be played on different portable media players, such as iPod.

So, if you have a MP4 file and you want to convert it into AVI format, then you can use a shareware or a downloadable shareware from the internet. The process of converting from MP4 to AVI using shareware is really easy and you can do it with just few clicks.
