Windoze Media Encoder (http://download.microsoft.com/download/winmediatech40/wmenc71/7.1/W98NT42KMe/EN-US/wmencoder71.exe) will, but why on earth would you want to???

MP3s are already compressed. Compressing them more won't make much of a difference. Stick with MP3. It has better compatibility.

compressing them to wma does actually give a really good compression, however there is a problem with wmas having info stored to try to prevent them being p2ped.

if you really want better compression ise dbpoweramp to convert to .ogg; but id stick to mp3, much nicer
