I have to convert file wma to mp3. because my handpone is not  compatible with wma format. So I try to find application that can convert wma format to mp3. in ubuntu apparently, I found two applications that can  convert wma to mp3.  They are ffmpeg and lame. ffmpeg used to convert wma to wav and lame to convert wav to mp3.This post will mainly cover just the commands I used to install ffmpeg and lame  on ubuntu 10.04 and the way how to used ffmpeg and lame to convert wma to mp3.

install ffmpeg :

#sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
