Is it possible to easily convert a WMA 9 lossless audio file to WAV or AIFF format on a Mac to make it compatible with iTunes?

I've tried EasyWMA which flat-out didn't work (nothing but errors). You'd think that if the sole purpose of a program was to convert .WMA files to .WAV files on a single operating system, it would work. mad.gif I also tried Music Man which I can't figure out and/or doesn't work either.

The only other option I can think of is to play the .WMA file with Windows Media Player for Mac and capture the audio with Audio Hijack. This method is a bit round about but would work.

If there's any way at all you can use a PC, Microsoft makes a command line program exactly for this purpose. WMA9 Lossless to PCM converter (scroll down). Perhaps you have VirtualPC?

Looks like a great program. Unfortunately, I don't have Virtual PC and my limited access to a Windows machine is limited. Thanks for link, though.
