Anyone know of a way to convert the .wma to .mp3? I own the license and won't be sending this song to anyone else.
For the curious: the song is Van Morrison's "Glad Tidings" from the Moondance album. I actually owned the album at one point and lost it

. Album not available through iTunes Music Store. Blah.

Any audio editing and converting software can be of use. Suggests FlexiMusic Wave Editor. Directly can't read WMA file in FlexiMusic Wave Editor, so play and record the Wma file in the software and then using the "Save As" command, convert and save the recorded Wma file as Mp3 format.
