Hi Tom, I did a search for this file type, and I got two possible matches. The first entry says audio advanced streaming format, and the second possibility is that it may be a windows media audio redirector. As for playing the file, I'm not sure what to suggest.

Here's my reason for asking: a little while back, I managed to save something (or at least I thought I was saving it)..the program in question was a show that had been archived on the WSM (Nashville Tennessee Radio station)..website; at that time, I had no way to record the program, so I was able to "save it (the file in question is a "WAX" file; the site has since changed..and that particular show has been removed..and the file that I saved? Well..it no longer will play! I tried converting it to an MP3 file, thinking it might play. But I got a message saying that the file was not a "legitimate sound file (or something to that effect)..it suggested that I "play the file and record it"..which..of course, won't work for me because the file no longer play! So I guess my question is: is there any way I can make this file play? Or is it "dead in the water".and the only thing I now can do with the file is to "delete it?" Hopefully I have explained this clearly enough so it is understandable! Thanks for listening.
