the nice thing about mkw is that it will let you convert it to .shn for a lossless version, or mp3 if that's your choice.

By far the easiest way I've found is just use iTunes and convert it.

Resurrection - Sorry- but I searched and found this. Is there any way to highlight an entire directory for conversion from wma to mp3 with DBpoweramp or do i have to sit there and click every damn file?

Open the folder, select all (Ctrl+A), right-click one of the files and hit convert.
