Remember: when moving from a lossless format (WAV) to a lossy format (ogg , mp3), you throw away a lot of data. transcoding to another lossy format will further degrade the audio. Recommendation: transcode to another, better lossless format, or to the final lossy format. WAV -> FLAC (archive) WAV -> mp3 or ogg to save space Since FLAC is lossless, you can transcode to a lossy format without degrading the audio. -Ed
