    wma vs wma lossless

    I have a question or two about wma vs wma lossless encoding. I just set up a new PC. I have a wireless router to use, primarily, for the Squeezebox I just bought.

    I ripped a CD just to go thru the process (bit of a newbie here) and noticed that the file extension was .wma. Playing the ripped version thru the Squeezbox was a disappointment (when compared to the CD "directly"). Since wma lossless was an option I set the ripping/encoding to wma lossless. The file extension was still wma (should it be different? how does one know if it has been done lossy or lossless?).

    I want to rip my favorite music with a lossless format but I am not convinced I have set up my Media Center 2005 to do lossless correctly. Any help or comments would be appreciated.

    Nevermind, found the answer in what should have been the obvious way.

      Windows Media Lossless = Cuss word here?
      by RacerChris
      Ok, my music collection kept growing and growing. Had a 200CD changer Sony 90ES which sounded great. :T But ran out of room. So I added the 70ES to make it 400 CDs, then ran out there too! :M

      So I am thinking of getting a Windows Media Center PC, burn all the discs using WMA...

      A Music Server In The House
      by David Meek
      Santa brought me a rather neat present. It's a Roku Labs Soundbridge, model M1001. It's a music server that allows me to stream digital music from the hard drive of my PC to my main sound system. It also lets me stream Internet radio stations too. For what it's worth, I'd never heard of this company...

      Quality portable audio player
      by csuzor
      I hesitate to put quality and portable in the same phrase, but I am looking for a quality portable audio player for travelling. I know I have to avoid high compression rates, I currently use a laptop with WMA lossless, and good AKG headphones, but the laptop is not very pratical.

      Does...

      Oppo BDP-103 review
      by BobEllis
      Well, Lex, you asked for it. My after Christmas present to myself was a new Blu-Ray player in the form of a BDP-103, which I have enjoyed for around 6 weeks.

      In a nutshell, I love this player. Video quality is excellent using a 60" Panasonic GT50. I only have one 3-D movie so...
