I just wanted to be sure there wasn't a large difference.  The specs on
WMA lossless are fairly conservative- it makes it sound much worse than
what I've found with Flac.

WMA Lossless includes tags, doesn't it?

My daughter has a Samsung MP3 player that integrates directly with WMP.
It may work with WinAmp too, but I'd have to research that.

I'm also considering starting a wiki for how to use WMP and Squeezebox.
My post which caused the flame-war may have been avoided if I had
found/realized that it can co-exist.  My noobieness caused me to
overlook the wma support and there isn't currently an entry for this.  
I'm no MS-Lover, but I'm willing to put my time where my mouth is- I
think we could wiki an easy setup configuration for WMP while at the
same time including links explaining how to 'do it better'.

By the way- thanks for replying to me in spite of my bad start to these
forums :).
