Converting M4A files to mp3s?

[FinchBulldog2]

I got a cd sent to me yesterday and I can't listen to it because it is all M4A files. Is there any way I can convert them to mp3?

I play my music on WinAMP mostly. Windows media at certain times too. I don't use itunes, which is what M4A files are for right?

try burning them to a cd then put the cd in, open itunes click prefrences, advanced, importing then change to mp3 then rip the disc

Quicktime should be abole to play it, if you're interested in using that worthless POS program. You might just have to rename the files as .mp4...dbpoweramp should be able to convert them though.
