Hi Guys
I'm a bit of an audiophile, and have a large collection of music stored in WAV
format to preserve the sound quality. Clearly it's not possible to copy many of
these huge files to a portable player, so they need to be compressed. After
much experimentation I've concluded that OGG and

Personally, for portable players I'd recommend using MP3 at at least
192kbps, I have never been able to tell the difference between WMA and MP3
and they're both lossy formats. MP3 tends to be supported on more players
than WMA does.
You could always keep compressed and uncompressed copies, or you
Hi,
Having to keep files in multiple formats for devices that didn't
support free formats was a big pain for me. The only solution was to
wait until the smallest excuse to get a portable audio player that
supported FLAC and OGG. This has made my life much easier.
I recommend an iAudio 7, not the

FLAC does little to resolve the OP's problem though, he already owns a

Hi Nigel,
