![]() In fact, you may find your CD player can play WMA (Windows Media Audio) files. With all protected music files, most people seem to get round the problem by burning them to CD in the original format, then re-ripping them. JS: You should look on the music site for an FAQ (list of frequently asked questions) or other help file that says what you are allowed to do with the files: permissions vary. I've bought two different converters, neither of which will convert the files. I want to change them to wav files so I can play them on a CD in the car. I've downloaded some protected WMA files from a music site, not knowing they were in this format. There are answers to common questions at TagChangeFaq/ ![]() The change will be made regardless of any disputes or unpaid debts, so registrars can no longer try to hold domain names hostage. JS: Contact Nominet UK, which will change the domain tag for you for a fee of £15 plus VAT, regardless of whether the holder likes it or not. The problem is that this company will not answer the phone or reply to emails, and the new hosting company needs them to release the domain in order to complete the transference. I signed up with a web hosting company a year ago and after many disconnections, email failures and other problems I want to move our site somewhere else. If price is not a problem, it would be best to compare the three main options in a shop. The PSP's main drawbacks are the price - about £180 - and the limited battery life. This is much more powerful than the GBA SP and has a bigger 4.3in widescreen. However, Sony is launching the PlayStation Portable (PSP) on September 1. The Nintendo DS (Dual Screen) may be even better, at about £100, for the stylus controller. It is neat, very portable, has a good selection of old games, and is fairly reasonably priced at about £70. JS: Nintendo's Game Boy Advance SP is the obvious choice, but it must be the SP version for the backlit screen. We are not getting any younger, so the screen would need good visibility. We are looking for portable hardware to play simple games while lazing by a pool, such as two decks solitaire, Space Invaders, Breakout etc. HomePlug is much cheaper and apparently much easier to set up than a wireless connection, and it should be much faster than dial-up. Also, 75 yards may be close to the practical limit, though Devolo's spec sheet says its kit will work at 200m. However, mains signalling suffers from noise, and typically runs much slower than Ethernet (Cat5) cable. ![]() Devolo's MicroLink dLan Starter Kit ( Media/PDFs/a70cx.pdf) is one example, and there's a review at reviews/2004/q4/devolo.asp. In theory, you should be able to connect the second PC via a mains-borne network using standard HomePlug devices.
