I tried to use the Audacity audio-software. Nice, small editor, works
fine for free. But, it doesn't seem to "eat" straight the windows' own
wma audio-data. I didn't found any wma - wav -converter from the
Audacity. How them, who have used the Audacity, have solvent this
problem? To buy better software? Other possibilities...?

You need a converter. SFAIK, wma files are closed and any author of
a converter would be required to pay licensing to M$.

Or burn them to CDR(/W) using Nero or similar, and rip them back to wave.
Or play and record them using steambox or similar "record what you hear".
