I believe it is only the later versions of Winamp that have the ability to play the WMA format. If you have an earlier version of Winamp and it does not play your WMA files, update to the latest version. Of course, you can have more than one version of Winamp on your computer--just put them each in a separate directory. I am currently using version 5.1. ----- Original Message ----- From: "André van Deventer" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'PC audio discussion list.

Thanks! I bought some of these files from a music service over here. This means that I have the licenses on my computer anyway. So I suppose Winamp should not give me a problem then?

Subject: Re: Mp3 Players that play WMA files Yes, I am able to play the copywrite protected files on my computer using Winamp. They ask that you don't download these files to a public computer. The files time out after 21 days but you are allowed one renewal for another 21 days. One thing you can't do is copy the file to another format such as from WMA to MP3 or OG vorbus etc. ----- Original Message ----- From: "André van Deventer" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'PC audio discussion list.

Subject: Re: Mp3 Players that play WMA files Kathy, Winamp will play these WMA files for you. Of course, Winamp is not an MP3 player as such or specifically at any rate but it will play WMA files. It is a computer-based program. You may know of the program already but if not, it is available from www.winamp.com You can purchase stand-alone WMA players and the books are supposedly able to be downloaded, copied and played on WMA players. I have listened to 3 or 4 books on my computer using Winamp. You can insert time markers for convenient restarts. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim Noseworthy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'PC audio discussion list.

As well, some of them have a 21 day timer; after which, the book doesn't function. I don't think that these books will play on a stand-alone MP3 player.

Subject: Mp3 Players that play WMA files Hi, all! I work in our local public library system in Louisville, and recently the decision was made to put downloadable audible books on our website. Thing is, the books are in Windows Media format only. Does anyone know what players are available, that are relativiely inexpensive and blind-friendly, to play these things? I know that, blind friendly or no, if you want players that save your place for you in a file, you have to buy more expensive stuff. But any help to know which ones to recommend for us blind readers would be greatly appreciated!
