How to Download Music to a PSP From Windows Media Player

Windows Media Player encodes music in the Windows Media Audio (WMA) file extension. This is a more compressed file than an MP3 and offers smaller file sizes, which will allow you to ultimately fit more music on a PSP Memory Stick Pro Duo.

Things You'll Need

Wireless Internet connection
PSP USB cable
Memory Stick Pro Duo
WMA files
