For most audio files, you can use iTunes instead. For audio files that use Microsoft's DRM, you'll have to use Windows Media Player for Windows. You can also download Windows Media Player for Mac from Microsoft's website, or install the Flip4Mac plugin (which allows you to play Windows Media files in Quicktime) from the same page. Many people also recommend VLC Player.
