Title: MP3 Vs. WMA
Post by: Pink Waters on May 04, 2005, 02:07:40 pm
This is a poll to know if two songs  in 192 kbps quality but one is in Mp3 format and the other in Wma format, so which of them is better that the other in quality or closer to Cda quality.

Be careful to start a poll about every question. Could be too much.  ;)

My guess would be WMA 192 is better than CBR 192. Since i dont really use WMA and going with what people have said.

Would be more interesting if you compared VBR (lame aps) with WMA 192. Or does it have to be strictly CBR 192 ONLY.

What decison will you make based on the poll results ?

Buy more WMA, archive into WMA ?
