I really have to push out for WMA here, 95% of my audio is stored in WMA
format, I have no intent on re-recording or changing file formats to =
suit
someone else, as it works on all my devices (inc the portable ones) and =
I am
very happy with the quality vs. file size.

When I'm not listening to the WMA files, then I'm listening to Internet
radio (club 977 - 80's radio) especially.

It may not be want you want to hear, however if you are developing a
replacement for the AT then as a bare minimum, it should do everything =
that
the current AT does, including WMA and Internet Radio

Thanks

Have you tried OGG Vorbis? Better compression and smaller file size than
MP3, the only reason I don't use it myself is because none of my
hardware devices (AT and in-car MP3 CD players) will support it.

If there's a way of including WMA without headaches then we'll
definitely look into it, on the grounds that we want to support as many
filetypes as possible.
