ive got all my audio cds onto my ext harddrive. i want to put all that onto my ipod but most of the songs do not convert into mp3 with out having the cd in the computer[in itunes]. well i lost alot of those cds but they work on my computer and i was wornering if there was some program that will convert all my songs so i can put them all onto itunes.
yes it is called windows media player 10 just go into settings and tell it to convert the files into mp3 it just takes seconds
iTunes will convert Mp3 and WMA files on your hard-drive to Mp4 (M4a), the audio format supported by apple for itunes and the iPod, but will also rip CDs to Mp4 or Mp3. So what type of files are on your harddrive?
johnodd- it doesn't take seconds to convert wma to mp3 on wmp (or windows audio converter is the plugin you're referring to). it takes seconds to do mp3-wma, but vice versa, that's another matter. it took me 13 hours to convert 1390 songs.....
most files i have are wma files and when i try and convert them in itunes it says i need rhe original cd. so should i just go with windows media player ? i knew ir would take me forever if i did it on there thats why i was wondering if you guys knew any easier programs to speed up this process.
If your WMA files arn't protected (bought or rented) dBpowerAMP will conver your WMA files. dBpowerAMP: http://www.dbpoweramp.com/
and what do i do if they are audio protected ? i already have dvd4free which is supposed to take off all protections, but that doesnt work with this.
well to my understandings it is supposed to have a 'remove auido cd protection' feature... and it does. i just didn't know if it worked in this type of example.
