WMA to MP3.
« on: April 13, 2008, 05:57:02 am »
how can you convert .WMA files to .MP3 ones?

everytime i do it (by opening the file and changing the name Song.wma to Song.mp3 i can't listen to the song anymore)

i used to know how to do it, but i can't remember... [retard] ???

It will not work. Take a search on google for batch mp3 converters, theres bound to be free ones out there.
Stick all your wma files through it and they'll come out mp3s.

Why'd you have them in WMAs anyway? Everyone knows mp3 is the way to go.

you could go .ogg... if your a nerd

No, I think you'll find renaming .wav to .mp3 works erroneously. .wma to .mp3 never has to my knowledge.

If you want an .mp3 of a track then download that track from somewhere. - Simple solution.

If you don't like the inconvenience of having to insert a CD to listen to it then download the tracks you want. Storing CD's on your computer is a pointless waste of memory and is generally what lazy people do.

iTunes will also automatically convert wma files when you import them into your library.  By default it converts them to AAC, but you can change the settings for the program and tell it to generate MP3 instead

We do not lock threads simply because the question has been answered.  This stifles possibly useful future discussion and can cause extra threads to be unnecessarily created

In short, your .mp3 player won't play .wma files because it's an .mp3 player. If it wasn't made by Microsoft or given permission to use Windows Media drivers in the firmware then it wouldn't have .wma compatibility.

I have a CD player that can play .wma files, it has Windows Media drivers in it  :)
