Wma sounds kinda tinny and... different to me. You'll get good results if you rip with mp3 or wav.
Yes, I use Windows Media Player to rip music from my CDs. I've never actually changed the settings. I've always used the default settings. I did go into tools>options>rip music. I've now turned the slider over to best quality, as far as it will go. Now where it says format, there are 3 options...Windows Media Audio, Windows Media Audio(variable bit rate) and Windows Media Audio Lossless. Which one of these three should I use? I don't really know the difference between the three.
