Whats so good about WMA? I tried converting 3 mp3's to .wma using MusicMatch JukeBox. 2 of them turned out to be larger size than mp3 and 1 of them turned out to be the same. The only reason WMA is superior than MP3 I can think of right now is most web hosts dont pay attention to them.

That's silly and untrue. 64kbps wma are cd quality. You must have encoded at a higher bitrate. However, wma's are still a poor excuse for mp3s because they have a lot of copyrights and restrictions built in.

WMA isn't anywhere near CD quality at any bitrate.

The ONLY reason you should ever get a WMA is when you need a song ASAP on a slow modem. Otherwise, stick with MP3.
