New Napster

punkerspaz · 4th January 2004, 13:30

Hi,
You know that now there is a new Napster I'm sure and that it costs money to burn. Well I was on there and relized, it still downloads the file to your hard drive its just in WMA format. So I figured I could just use Nero to burn them after I converted them from WMA to MP3. Heres the problem...I tried about 5 of the convertors on download.com and all of them say something like "Source File Can Not Be Found" does anyone have any ideas?

Thanx

that usually happens when you are trying it on a shortcut innit?

Those wma's have digital rights management on them. so its a pain to do anything with them. They suck, don't download.

use kazaalite or winmx or irc instead
wma files are of poor sound quality anyway.

Why NOT to use wma/mp3pro

I burn my WMA's at 192k at least.......I don't notice any sound quality problems. I think it all really depends on what sample rate you burn stuff at.
