To change the settings in WMP: Go to TOOLS, then OPTIONS. In the options box, select "Rip Music". In the "Rip settings, Format window, click on the drop-down menu arrow and select MP3. Click OK. You're done.

Then, I convert them to .mp3 using Goldwave. I delete all the .wma files, then copy them to my BP using Windows Explorer. In many perhaps all cases, my BP shows art files, mostly .jpg files and one .ini file. These don't show up on the card if I look at it in Windows Explorer, only on the BP. Does anybody have a clue how this could possibly be happening? I was going to try and do OCR on one of the .jpg files, but as I say, they don't show up on the card except when it's being read by the BP. Thoughts?
