I discovered that the Palm version of RealPlayer lacks WMA support. 25% of my music is WMA and I am not going to re-rip that 25 percent into MP3. Pocket Tunes looks like a nice jukebox, but who would pay 40 USD for a media player. I just want a nice free media player that is compatible with Palm OS 5.0 and has WMA support. I know I already have an MP3 player, but I want to be able to listen to my WMA files on my PDA if I cannot use my MP3 player.


NEEDS TO MEET THESE CRITERIA:

WMA SUPPORT

FREE. I am not the type of person who would pay for softwere unless he has to.

Can I get it for my PDA? It runs Palm OS 5.

Oh I misunderstood you. Its designed for desktop and laptops of all flavours. It fills the role of itunes. Sorry.
