    That is correct. Why do you think an Apple product would ever play a Microsoft product?

    There are tools that can do an Ok conversion from wma to m4a. They are actually nearly the same product in different containers, I think the encoders are made by the same company. However, you will always lose some quality during the conversion. Low bit rates like what you probably have take a bigger hit than the higher bit rates.
