Looking for a simple free WMA to MP3 converter

Can anyone recommend a good, simple & free utility that can convert DRM protected WMA files to MP3? I have found a few, but they are all trial versions & will only convert the first few mins of a track.

I am looking to just convert a few DRM WMA tracks into MP3 format so they can play on my Sansa player. Therefore, I don’t want to purchase the whole software in order to convert only about 6 tracks. Any suggestions?

VLC can do it. It can do most things.

Get VLC here.

Your first link is about converting video files, not audio files, which is what WMA is. (WMA is Microsoft’s audio encoding format, a “rival” to MP3.)

I can’t tell from your second link whether VLC can break the DRM, which is the OP’s main problem. Sansa players should be able to play DRM-free WMA-format files.

It works the same way for all files. I thought that would be obvious.

DRM might be a concern.

Hope this isn’t against the rules, but for such few tracks it might be easiest to merely use the ‘analog hole’. IOW play and re-record the tracks at the same time with two different apps (one that plays DRM WMAs and another that records MP3s)…
