Napster: convert songs to MP3 - is that possible?
In this practical tip, we will show you two ways you can easily convert songs from Napster to MP3 files.
Convert songs from Napster to MP3 - free option
You need iTunes to convert songs from Napster to MP3 for free.
- Start the program, click on "File" and select "Add to library". Then navigate to the Napster folder (C: \ Users \ user name \ AppData \ Local \ Microsoft \ Windows \ Temporary Internet Files) and select the songs contained there.
