How do you change the rip settings on Windows media plyer ..

Please help me.
Does anybody know how to change the settings on media player version 9 so
that I can rip WMA files onto my mp3 player in mp3 form instead?

I have had the problem that I have been trying to solve for a long time.
I have downloaded tracks from the Internet in WMA format but my mp3 player
will not except them. On advice I have been told to change the format of the
song files to mp3 format.

Could you please tell me how to do this. I have gone onto FAQ's and the help
section of the Windows media player and I cannot find the answer so I really
hope you can tell me what to do.
I have gone onto 'Tools' and then 'Options' and I selected the 'Copy music'
tab hoping that I could change the format when copying onto my mp3 player.
The problem though is that the file format is blocked and it is stuck on
'Windows media audio' and it isn't possible to change it.

Could you please, please help me out and solve this problem. I have been
conferencing with the support from the online store for months and I still
have not solved the problem. Now I know what I need to do to solve it but I
Windows media pleyr will not let me.

Thankyou very much.

I found an online thread where a professional user was addressing the issue
