i just downloaded a song on limewire and now i want to convert it to a wma on a program but how come my file isn't an mp3 anymore its an m3u?
lovescream
m3u is a fileplaylist type if you save it on winamp. i dont know what you did though.
are you sure you converted it correctly? or did you not convert it yet?
meleonade

heres how you convert to wma:
QUOTE
Now open stream box ripper and click on load, select the mp3 that you got from winmx.
Click on convert. In the screen that pops up, select the following.
*decode from start
*change to sampling rate 22050Hz//channels mono
*select msaudio - bitrate 16kBps
*uncheck equalizer, check the following two
*look at the top and select the directory you want to save the song in
*click on ok
Sign up for a webhost [links on the resource page].
Upload your song [before you upload it, change the name of it to a lowercase abbreviation with no spaces]
The url will be similar to http://www.webhost.com/u-on-webhost/name-of-song.wma

im using "Power MP3 WMA Converter" but i just dont know why the format for my song i just downloaded is a m3u type cuz it was originally a mp3
lovescream
well i think you should re-download it again and seriously make sure it's mp3 this time and then convert it. m3u doesnt play songs.

probly because you were not paying attention to the settings. you have to check teh settings before you convert.
