Windows Media Player can rip cd's as MP3 as well as WMA now. Any questions, ask away!

If you mean Windows Media Player, I think only 10 onwards will do MP3, you need to set it up by going into:

- Tools
- Options
- Rip music

Then choose the MP3 format and whichever bit rate you want. If MP3 doesnt show, then try either upgrading media player or re-installing.

You can also rip a WMA to MP3 using a 3rd party utility, I personally use dBpowerAMP for converting audio files.

Lol will do shortly hehe. I will get Mark to move the posts about the Media Player into a thread of its own in the tech forums, so it wont look like we hijacked the thread lol.
