Title: wma into mpg3
Post by: mistybear on May 21, 2006, 11:58
I have recently acquired some audio files that I'll be burning to CD and a couple of them are wma files. I've googled it and I see there are wma to mpg3 converters.
Can someone suggest one that would be the best to use. And of course easiest. :?  :blush:

this one LINK (http://www.download.com/NBFree-WMA-to-MP3-Converter/3000-2140_4-10465663.html?tag=lst-0-5) is pretty simple, though there appears to be some loss between wma to mp3 conversion, but it is hardly noticeable. It is also a nice a easy program to use.

Seeming that was so successful thought  we'd try video conversion.
Michael needs a mpeg to avi converter.
I found one that was the other way around, wasn't sure if it would do the reverse.

you may want to try... http://www.divx-digest.com/software/exstream.html ... pretty simple but I'm not sure that you will not get a huge file.

sounds from the description like it will work but I'm not sure I'd trust that software, seems a bit dodgy, like it might contain malware.. give it a scan and a go...

WinAvi is about the simplest one MB, not free but well worth the money I think  :)
