I use Max but there are other good (free) programs out there like XLD, Switch, and xAct just to name a few.

You're on a Mac forum, and wma is a dead format. So it's obligatory to ask why you want to do this?

found a solution (max does NOT seem to convert to wma).
audacity (with ffmpeg downloaded into it's library) seems to work.
next project: mp3s to 8-track tapes!

Oops...knew those programs convert just about everything...didn't think to check the formats they each support. Glad you got something to work.

You could try using QuickTime with Flip4Mac.
