I prefer wma files over mp3 files. Mainly because I feel they're closer to CD Quality (because if you rip a regular music CD onto your computer they're already in wma format)


Is there a way I can get better search results for files in wma format than
mp3? The vasy majority of search results I get come are in mp3.

Thats Because .wma format has been compromised, by spammers & many people have taken them out of shared folder, there are good ones out there
But becoming Rare.

WMA files are not necessarily closer to CD quality. YOUR computer rips CDs to WMA files because you are using Windows Media Player. If you were using a different program, the default file type could just as easily be mp3. Perhaps a better indication of the quality of a file is how large it is. The higher the quality (in general) the larger the file size. The bitrate should correlate directly with file size (i.e. the higher the bitrate, the larger the size).

Good Luck
