you need to convert them. open itunes, then go file>add folder to library. select the folder you want to add, then it will say something like ‘detected WMA format, convert?’ select convert, and they will convert unless they are protected files, which itunes cant convert.
the other alternitive is to rip them onto you pc again from the original disk with itunes

You need to convert the files. If they are wma, then convert them into mp3′s.
A free converter- http://www.dbpoweramp.com/
Afterwards, you can play them in itunes.
