Download a free application called Switch.  It does a really good job of converting a variety of audio formats, including WMA to mp3.\n\nSwitch Download:\nhttp://www.nch.com.au/switch/\n\nIn order for WMA conversion to work, you'll also need to download Flip4Mac.  It's a QuickTime component for playing Windows Media content.\n\nFlip4Mac Download:\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/wmcomponents.mspx

Ignore the rubbish answers above, they are nonsense!!\n\nAll you need is an audio editing program or, even easier, a wav-mp3  converter. A simple google search gives these results.\n\nhttp://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=wav+to+mp3+converter&btnG=Google+Search&meta=\n\nIf you need any help, contact me ;)

The easiest way to do it on the cheap side is with a program called AUDACITY. Audacity is an open source sound editor with some function of highend adio editing software. It isn't as feature packed as Adobe Audition or other commercial software but it will do for your question.\n\nDownload Audacity>\nhttp://audacity.sourceforge.net/\n\nInstall Audacity and open it.\n\nON the FILE menu, Select OPEN. point the program to the path of the sound you want to change to 44.1 Wav. It will open. Now at the bottem of Audacity you will see a box that says  PROJECT RATE, click on it and select 44100.\n\nNow goto FILE and select EXPORT AS WAV. a box appears,browse to where you want to save, change the filename  and click SAVE. Wait a few seconds it's done.\n\nAlternativly you can use winamp.\nDownload and install winamp (if you don't have it yet)\nhttp://www.winamp.com\n\nOpen it up.\nDrag and drop your file/s into the playlist editor. Goto OPTIONS and select PREFERENCES. In the Sub tree of the section marked PLUGINS, click on OUTPUT. Click on the NULLSOFT DISK WRITER PLUGIN and then click on the button CONFIGURE below. Change the Output directory. Check CONVERT TO FORMAT, select format PCM and attributes 44.100kHz,16 bit stereo and click OK. Click OK again and CLOSE. before you press play make sure repeat is disabled (the circle arrow thing must not have a light on).\n Click PLAY. winamp will now make all the tracks in your playlist editor into single files with the names of the files you selected.\n\nWhen your doen just go back to preferendes, Plugins > output and click on DIRECT SOUND OUTPUT and click CLOSE so that winamp will play normal.\n\nthere are 100's of programs that will work easier but most are trial versions.\n\nYou didn't give that much info about why you want to or from what kind of source you are working, so advice is limited. It isn't a good idea to upsample the rate say from 22 or 32 to 44.1, because it will introduce nosie which may be audible(best way i can describe it).

This is a very simple process.  Go to google and search "sound file converter".  There is a great amount of free programs designed for just his purpose.  I will give you a recommendation on a program once I find one, okay?  Please refrain from downloading until then.\n\nOn a different note, are you wanting to transfer them from the CD to the computer?  If so, email me and tell me what version of Windows Media Player you are running.

burn them on a cd, then upload them to a different music program. There, they'd either show up as mp3, or you'd have an option to convert them.

Free or Paid?\nFor free, you can try Audacity (you may need to get additional plug-ins, though.) http://www.download.com/Audacity/3000-2170_4-10325373.html?tag=lst-0-1\nAt a cost, you can try ImTOO Encoder. http://www.download.com/ImTOO-MPEG-Encoder/3000-2194_4-10499530.html?tag=lst-0-2\nBoth programs will do exactly what you need to do, and ImTOO will do even more for you. You can convert almost all media files with it.

If you're using XP (and I think it works in 2000) right click the wav and select record. This gives you a new dialogue box . Click FILE then PROPERTIES. You get the option there to convert the format and change the playback bit rate. Select the one you want and save it.

The way that I do it is probably unconventional. There might be an easier way to do it. But you can give this a shot.\n\nI use Windows Media Player to rip a file from a CD to MP3 format, or download an MP3 file.\n\nThen I take it to MusicMatch, where I convert the file from .mp3 to .wav (you may have to download this at musicmatch.com, I believe)\n\nThen onto Sound Record, which comes standard on all windows o/s. you can custom tailor the snippet of your song here.\n(you can find it at Start-->Programs-->Accessories-->Entertainment-->Sound Recorder)\n\nthen back to music match to convert your new .wav back to .mp3\n\nsounds like a pain in the ass... but it's a very easy way to get the job done...
