mpga ??.. I never have heard of it.. is an audio format??

if u can play it in winamp, then could be converted into mp3,
just let me know, or contact me.

ive never heard of that file format either.

well... i guess what you need to do is figure out how to get it decompressed, into a wav file.. then just encode the wav file into MP3 with any number of MP3 encoders.

i prefer lame. it's simple and easy.

You have RealOne player installed, right ?
In that case, .mpga is the same thing as .mp3
Just change the extension. No conversion necessary.
RealOne player likes to rename your MP3s when you download them for some reason.

I've always hated realplayer... not i just despise it.
