The freeware VLC media player will play both mp3 and WMA files and pretty much any other music or video format.
You can get a plug in for iTunes to play WMA but personally I do not bother. I use VLC as my default player from Finder and simply open iTunes if I want to play media from within that. Google VLC Videodland and follow links for the Mac version.
