My fathers got a ipod and a napster supscription for xmas, and today he gets around to setting it up - only to find that napster files arnt compatible with ipods it seems, due to the protected WMA format, this then makes the napster subsription useless due to him only wanting to hear the songs on his ipod. Is there any free way of converting them to plain old mp3's or at least something that ipod can support. I know napster have a napster to go that converts it, but you have to pay considerably more a month, and he isnt even sure he wants to go with napster long term yet

a remember hymn-project.org did it for itunes, so im hoping there might possibly something on the same vein for napster?

any suggestions?
