For mac, stick with mp3 & m4a files. You'll be better off. Not many mac programs can play or burn wma files! I don't know of any mac burner program that can burn wma files!
I also have downloaded some WMA files on my G5 using Limewire not realizing that ITunes doesn't like them. After some research on a different forum, I found a file conversion program that is supposed to work. I have not had a chance to try it yet, but thought I would pass it along in case anyone is interested. I will update after I have a chance to try it tonight.

The program is called switch. It's an open source project from Austrailia.
