Was it for Mac or for PC? What did you eventually use?

For a mac based solution I used the rather excellent EasyWMA app, allows you to convert WMA to m4a (AAC) and mp3, at varying bitrates. Very handy indeed.

I have been downloading music from Limewire which is mp3 format and I cannot burn anything to disk that is over 80 minutes long. I need to convert from mp3 to audio so I can play it in my car and I also need a program that will allow me to brun the music up to the 80 minute mark, Windows Media Player just says will not fit and spits out cd as does Nero.

Any suggestions please? Sorry to hijack the thread!

Used it for a while now! Best program i have ever used!

It has its own space in the right click menu so you can just right click your file and select convert! Does any musical file to any other audio type!

Will this program allow me to burn albums that are over 80 mins long? Or is there a facility to trim?

You can burn longer than 80mins with Nero.
Just enable the overburn setting in preferences/expert features.
