Hi

I have a load of WMA files on my comp created by recording CDs using
media player. I recently bought an MP3 compatible stereo for my car,
thinking it would play the WMAs as MP3s-it doesn't!
Can anyone recommend a program (free, very preferably) to convert my
WMA files to MP3s? I've already tried one or two from downloads.com
but they don't seem to like converting FROM WMA.

Any help gratefully received.

Have you tried dBpowerAMP? It's a very nice free program that will
convert from WMA to MP3:

One excellent thing about dBpowerAMP is that you can get lots of
support from an online forum:

Thats exactly the one I downloaded but it doesn't seem to want to
convert wma files-it wont even recognise them when I load up the
Converter program. Any ideas?

Thanks for your help.

You might find assistance in the online forum (linked above).
DBpowerAMP definitely has the capability of converting from WMA to
MP3.

This program might be worth a try:

Pinkfreud-you are a genius and a very clever man too! Tried the last
one you suggested and it works like a dream. Please feel free to post
it as an answer.

All the best,
