Actually I've seen a few devices that do support WMA Lossless as well.
However, my point is that the devices that comes with software also are
more likely to support converting (transcoding) from WMA Lossless out of
the box than from FLAC. And, I would guess that some companies don't
play too well with 3rd party codecs and will not offer support for such
setup if that is needed.

As for SS transcoding, that works fine for me as well. However I stream
as uncompressed, mainly because it saves server resources and network
bandwidth is not a problem. Also I belived in as few steps as possible
to get the music from my HD's to the SB's, even if it's a perfect
representation of zeroes and ones ;)

OT: Oh, if I only could get a device like the SB3 that does DSD ;)
