[Web4lib] Downloadable audiobooks - Windows Media Player fortheMacintosh?

[Stephanie Griffith]

I've used a program to convert Windows Media Files that I've downloaded
to Itunes compatible files. It's a free, third party program available
at the Apple website. I'm not sure if this is the exact one I have on my
Mac, but it looks like it would accomplish the same goal.

Sounds like you're really expecting a lot from your user.  I'd give 'em 
a star if any of them accomplished the task.
