Software that can slow down the music?


Does anyone know of an audio software that can slow down the speed of a song? I have to do some jazz transcriptions for a class. I know that in Windows Media Player, you can slow down the song and keep the pitch. Can xmms or mplayer do this? If so, how? If not, any other software out there that can do this? Thanks

Audacity (http://audacity.sourceforge.net/) can change tempo without changing pitch.

Great, I got the software.

Unfortunately, it does not know how to open *.WMA (windows media audio) files.
I could rip it using cdparanoia... unfortunately I don't know how to use it either. I may start another thread if nobody can help me with cdparanoia. Help!!!
