Converting mp3 to WMA files

[peter12]

I am wondering how to convert mp3 files because they take up less space, how do I go about doing this? Thanks

You want to convert a mp3 file to a wma file? wma lossless or lossy? Because if you convert a mp3 to wma (lossy) you'll be losing sound quality and mp3's already sound like crap anyway.

But to answer your question, use dBpowerAMP. It'll convert most formats. You may have to convert to wav first.

Try Here

You could also try JetAudio, I know they have a file converter but I've never tried it before. I know for sure that Windows Media Encoder will convert your files to WMA. Click the above link for it.

It should. But I wasn't sure if he wanted to convert mp3-wma or wma-mp3 or what. powerAMP will convert nearly everything. Handy little tool.

You need to download the bonuspack if you're running XP.
