My son needs to do a school project and he is downloading a ring tone for the Simpsons but it is a wma or pdb file BUT he need that sound file to be a wav file or an mp3--- we cannot see to find this anywhere!! Do you know of any app that will turn a WMA file to a wave or mp3 file. Please help.

Check out www.winamp.com. It's pretty good about converting files to .wav.

Hi montemag:

Winamp3 is the latest version of Winamp. In checking their forums for information on converting from .wma to .wav using this version, the mods state it is <a href="http://forums.winamp.com/showthread.php?threadid=120003&highlight=.wma+to+.wav">not possible with Winamp3</a> but they recommend <a href="http://www.dbpoweramp.com/dmc.htm">dbpoweramp.</a>

See if you have any luck with that site. In the meantime, if you hit <a href="http://www.google.com">Google</a> and type in "converting .wma to .wav", the search page returns a ton of utilities that you can download/use.

Hope this helps! Good luck.
