Hello

Can someone point me to an easy (and free) tool to do this conversion. I thought that winamp could do it, but apparently you need the pro (ie not free) version...

cheers,

You will need to get the LAME codec to convert files into mp3 here: http://www.free-codecs.com/Lame_Encoder_download.htm

First time you decode some file into mp3 it will ask you what the folder where you d/led the LAME codec is, for next conversions it will do it automatically--->http://www.foobar2000.org/?page=FAQ#converting_audio_files_to_different_file _formats
