Greetings all,
first post to this newsgroup. I bought one of the plugins for Media player 9
on WXP to encode/rip mp3 files from cds. Suppose I have some WAV files - how
can I CONVERT them from WAV to MP3 with Windows Media Player 9? Can this be
done?

Seems like I've already paid for the _decoder_, I should be able to _deccode_
whatever I like, regardless of format. Of course I could burn the WAV files
to CD, then "RIP" it from there to MP3 but that's a sucky option.
