Hi all,
Thanks for the information provided. It gave me enough info to figure out a solution. I was just bumping around the web to see what was available. I needed to convert napster wma to rm. Heres how I did it.
Downloaded napster songs and burned to a CDRW with napsters burn. (You have to pay for the tracks first, no biggy for me).
Then ripped cd to mp3 with
musicmatch (8?)
To get my rm's, I then
opened mp3's in Adobe Audition 1.0
Converted to 16bit (rm cant convert 32 bit wavs for some reason)
saved as a wav file
converted to rm with Real producer 8.51
But for your purposes, you prob could stop after ripping the burnable CD. So, I am thinking that the lesson is... Once the tracks are burned to a CD.... bye bye to the protection and hello to MP3's. Anyways, this was my first experience and I now have 18 rm's ready for streaming
Chances are ripping the cd after you burn with the napster burner will work form other rippers.
Hope this helps.
Ciao
