Convert MWA to MP3

[Hannes de Roubaix]

I've recently bought a Nokia 6230 with can play MP3's.
The only problem is, because I've used WMP to rip all my
CD's, all my "MP3" are WMA's, which my phone can't read.
I've searched all over the internet to find something to
convert WMA files to MP3, but all I can find in MP3 to
WMA. If there is anyone out there that know how to
convert WMA files to MP3 PLEASE let me know.

Thank you!

Use the dBPowerAMP music converter with the WMA plugin from their "Codecs
Central" page to convert from WMA to MP3:

A better solution in your case would probably be to re-rip your CDs in MP3
or WAV format in the first place, using this excellent *freeware* ripper,
instead of WMP: http://cdexos.sourceforge.net/ This is a better solution
because WMA and MP3 are both "lossy" formats, and converting from one to
tthe other causes the fidelity to suffer- although perhaps not always
noticeably. And besides, you still have your original CDs to extract the
audio files from!

Ian.

Windows Media PLayer 9 has a burn to CD option where the CD will be
converted to a readable style, if you're trying to data write the music to a
cd say 200 MP3's to one CD i would suggest windows xp professional plus.
This has an MP3 converter on it and it will go through an whole directory
for you and convert these to all MP3's for you.

It's the Windowsmedia Digital Plus Pack, not Windows XP Pro Plus (I have
no idea what that would be).
