ok now I think I am crazy...I thought there used to be a converter right in wmp to
convert audi files to wma..you would go to the library, right click the song and
click add to---> windows media audio converter or something like that...now when
I go to right click on a song that option is not there...was this only in vertain
versions of wmp??..I googled it till my face was blue and could not find how to do
it..I know I have done it before...anyone have any help/advice for me??
thanks

Why would you want to convert a perfectly good song to a wma file. It just adds DRM
to the song.

I know WMP can rip a CD to wma, never heard o it converting say a mp3, but I know
3rd party software is available.

If you can't open wmp help, and search for wma or convert and find what you are looking
for then it is a pretty definitive answer that it won't do it.
I'm not sure what else you need to hear?

thanks johnb33, that reminded me that the converter I had came with Microsoft Plus!
superpack..it wasnt part of wmp, it just embedded the convert option into the right
click menu in it..I got a new computer recently and that software didnt come on it!
thank you!!!
