I am an Mac 10.6 Lion user? How do I convert a .ram file (for a bit of sound) into using with Quicktime?

Having difficulty with a .ram file. I want to convert it to use with Quicktime.

I also have realised however that my pupil for a lesson (the file is for language-lesson) does not have a Mac anyway, so maybe she won't have Quicktime. I can ask her to download the latter then.

But -however, the question remains, how can I hear the soundfile and make it compatible with Quicktime?

Sincerely,

Susan.
