Audacity is a recording program, it'll also allow you to change song file types too and its free.

Search for perian, its a codec program so youll be able to watch/listen to files like wmv etc.

Stuffit allows you to open zip/rar files.

They're all free.

whats caffeine?
Dj-M.Bezzle 3:11 PM - 9 February, 2010
Caffeine is a tiny program that puts an icon in the right side of your menu bar. Click it to prevent your Mac from automatically going to sleep,
