The HPM-10 only plays mp3. Thats why it won't play the wma files.  |

No not all mp3 players can play .wma. The Mpeg layer 3 algorithm is free and open to anyone to develop and use whereas WMA is a proprietary streaming audio format owned by Microsoft. Third party manufacturers have to pay MS to include WMA support in their devices so many do not opt to add this feature and just stick to MP3. |
