Does anyone know how to take RealOne Music media files
and convert them to Windows Media XP format? I have
about 900 songs that I have copied using RealOne Player
and I cannot find a way for Windows Media 9 My Library to
access them.

Why would you use RealAudio, and not a standard format like MP3? Your best bet
is to rip the songs over with RealOne Player as 128Kbps MP3s. You could convert
the RealAudio files, but they would sound worse. ROP may be able to convert to
WMA, but I'm not sure.
RealOne Player does come with a free 320Kpbs MP3 encoder, but since RealNetworks
has to pay Fraunhofer a fee for each copy, they don't advertise it very well.
Open ROP, and go to the home page, look on the right side of the page for the
plug-in. You can also get RealOne Player Plus for $20, which includes some
nifty new features.
