WMA. to MP3

[Phenus]

Does anyone know of a program that can change a WMA file to an MP3? IF you do please tell me

I could tell you, but I'd have to kill you.

Just kidding. Please do yourself a favour and do not transcode from WMA to MP3. The quality will only suffer immensely. Please, Please, Please re-rip directly to mp3.

There are several that will. Easy CD-DA Extractor and Musicmatch are what come to mind right away. I prefer SoundForge, though. The problem is that they aren't transcoded; they're resampled, and you lose the resolution of the sine wave and it starts sounding crappy.

Handy,

Just for reference, the mp3 encoder in SoundForge has a bug. Referred to as "stereo collapse" It diminishes the width of the soundstage.

also, dBpoweramp is probably the easiest software to use to do this.
