Wmv To Mp3?
Sooo my mother has been dlwnloading all these songs from the Musicmatch store, and I don't know where to go to FIND them so i can put them on my sister's mp3 player. Then on top of that, they're in wmv - is there anything to convert them to mp3?
Any help would be appreciated - she's bought and dl/ed many songs but I can't find where they're located to transfer them. So anyone familiar with musicmatch?
Thanks....

Can't say how to find them, well, you could probably run a search for a song, and it'd find the folder that it/they were contained in, but as for how to turn wmv's into mp3's, I know iTunes has a converter, that will let you convert from pretty much any format to MP3.

Re: Wmv To Mp3?
bye the way they are WMA's I think ... not WMV's (at least they are WMA's in England)
Almost all MP3 Players will play WMA's /WMV's unless they are an iPod
If they don't... (play WMA's that is) ... then they automatically change them into MP3's as soon as they go onto the MP3 player
MP3 is .. well it is an MP3
WMA is Windows Media something
My exam tutor thingy
said this in an exam and I quote
'Surrender all IP3 players and mPods'
HAHAHA
I'm a computer geek and proud of it too !

Hope I helped
If you need any more help then remember
I'M ALLWAYS HERE !

Re: Wmv To Mp3?
Ah. WMA. You're correct. o.0 I'm so hopeless about computers.
And I did google it, but everything I found involved downloading some sort of program, which I'm not completely sure I want to do - but if iTunes can convert it, that would rock.

Since I am against quicktime in all regards, i dont know if itunes will do it, but most of the time you'll have to download a program to convert items.

Yes iTunes will do it. It may be different for PCs, but for the Mac program, you click on the Advanced Menu, and then "Convert Selection to MP3".
Adam, if I may ask, why are you against Quicktime? I mean, I'm opposed to Windows Media Player probably just as adamantly as you are to Quicktime, but I find quicktime to be far superior to WMP.

Quicktime is a TSR.
To actually get rid of a stubborn startup item you can use the registry editor and delete entries in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run.
QuickTime gets around this strategy, as someone noted, by surreptitiously reinstalling itself every time you do this. This qualifies it as malware in the eyes of some commentators.

or download VLC - it can play anything you throw into it.
