wma's to mp3's (1 Viewer)

[Lord Damian]

anyone know any good wma to mp3 converters? i just downloaded itunes (was running windows media player cuz i didn't wanna get in shit at work for downloading something but now i don't care) and it's currently importing all my wma files (converting to AAC first, whatever the hell that is, are ipods able to run those?)...at any rate, wanna transfer all my wma's to mp3, hopefully using a free converter...looked at one, couldn't verify the publisher and am NOT about to download and run something which could tear this machine a new asshole.

help?

iTunes on the PC does it as well as converting to AAC (which iPods can play)

so iPod transfers wma's to mp3's? why does it choose to transfer to AAC? i assume there must be something in it's options panel which i could toggle to switch it to "transfer to mp3"...it's busy now though, and AAC's are good enough apparently.

thanks h8n.

I think you just select the tracks, right-click, and select convert to MP3. Haven't done it for ages, but it's something dazzlingly simple.

I use this:

You can download and use it for free but you have to click to get rid of the sign-up pop-up after every track. Works though.
