Am trying to convert all of my songs from WMA format to MP3 format , as I want to put my music collection onto my phone.

Have got around 50 -60 albums on my computer that I want to convert and wondered if anybody could recommend a fairly simple program that would do this ?

Thanks :money:

    Why do you need to convert them or is it Apple?

    Converting from one lossy format to another isn't generally recommended. If you have access to any of these albums on CD you'll get better results starting over.
