When converting WMA to AAC

If they ARE protected (like most of my music) can you burn them onto cd's and then rip them onto itunes?? PLEASE SAY YES or $100 in music is down the drain

Anyone have an answer

does anyone know?

Apparently no one knows. I'm sure there are programs (ripping/encoding/converting/etc.) to do this, but as far your question if the content was protected when burned...it will still be protected when uploaded.

nero lets ya do it.
i m not sure what version though..
probably any.

try a trial one. u get to convert bout 10 or 15 songs.. and a 7 day trial of the whole program overall.

not sure if they changed it within the newer versions..

just google it

what is nero, can you link please

www.nero.com - A tough guess, I know. Too bad Google is the worst search engine in the world or I'd be sure you could have just typed in nero and this would have been your first hit.

ok, idk, i only have like 60 files that i wouldnt be able to transfer? Is it worth it?

yes it can be done, search fatwallet for the info

i cant find anything, could you link maybe?

bceagles04 I have just used Roxio Easy CD Creator 5.

When the band Projet Orange came to my school for a concert at the pub, I picked up a CD, but all the songs were WMA with Windows DMR encoding in them. I tried ripping the CD with many different programs, always the same result. A fucked up mp3/aac file to boot, with the songs all distorted.

So I decided to take the WMA files that were on the cd, copy them to my computer, then burn them to a new cd with Roxio. Then I ripped the new CD I just created and now I have AAC files for iTunes )

Hope this helps you with what you are trying to do.

Gotta love the weak security with Windows DRM technology, and the ability to have their 'so called' incompatible format changed to now go on my iPod.

Is the actual burning necessary?

Can it be burned to an image, then extracted to get the clean files?
