You can use WinAmp to do this - the exact procedure varies from version
to version, but (in v1.69) you need to set the output to "WAV file", and
it basically plays the file through silently to perform the conversion
(you can do batch jobs using the playlist - each song gets its own wav
file, which is cool)

Hope this helps.
