There's some site called media convert. I can't remember the web address, but you can google it and see.

Hi and welcome to the Aspie community

Do not know enough about Ipods myself, but my son thinks he can help... (see below):
Ok, Download itunes if you don't have it already and import all your songs into, they will instantly change into mp3, before you do though go in prefs and find the copy songs to itunes folder box and tick it... =D

Just go to www.download.com and search for wma mp3 convertor (or possibly converter). And look at the reviews and make sure to get a freeware program. Welcome.

Get WinLame, rules.
http://winlame.sourceforge.net/
Freeware.

Oh, and keep in mind that if you are converting from a WMA-MP3, MP3-WMA, ACC, MP4, etc or any other format, you'll lose quality. If you have the dics try converting them to MP3.
