There should be no difference at all in sound quality between FLAC and WMA lossless and little or no difference in file size. The choice is really then about support for the format. That is, how many software and hardware players will play WMA compared to those that will support FLAC. I don't know much more about FLAC but it strikes me as more of a archive and don't touch kind of format whereas WMA lossless, for me at least, provides both the archive and the convenience of being widely supported.

It seems if they're both lossless and work as advertized, each would yield similar results. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dana S.
