    If the files were ripped from a CD you own then it's worth re-ripping the CD again for two reasons. 1) MP3 is a better format than WMA and 2) Windows Media Player is not very good at ripping CD's.

    Use a program called Exact Audio Copy (EAC for short) to rip your CD's. Use this guide to get started = http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/archive/mydeneaclame.cfm
