mp3 formatted songs can be played on an ipod, however, wma cannot since it is a proprietary format owned by Microsoft. wma files can be converted to mp3 or aac formatted files in iTunes. To do so, just select the songs you want to convert, right click, and select "convert selection to aac." If you want to convert your songs to mp3, you have to set the default encoder to be mp3. To do this, go to "Edit" --> "Prefrences" and click on the "Advanced" tab. Then click on the "Importing" sub-tab. Under the drop down menu labled "Import Using:" select "mp3 Encoder."
