What is WMA?
WMA stands for Windows Media Audio. A proprietary audio format owned by Microsoft, part of Microsoft's Windows Media technology. Encapsulated in an ASF container, WMA has one ability that seems to attract more and more businesses and allows this format to stick around. That's the easy inclusion of DRM or Digital Rights Management directly into the WMA file. This ASF container also gives the WMA two file options. (.wma for strictly audio and .asf for features simliar to ID3 tags in MP3s).
The following article shares with you how to convert WMA to MP3 using Clone2Go Free Audio Converter. In the latter part of this article, a way to convert DRM protected WMA to MP3 will also be introduced. Let's take a look at how it performs:
