xircon   10 #13 Posted November 24, 2006 Gabblerachet is the audiophile  I am mostly deaf from years of listening to loud music and playing the guitar. I am a linux user so I do all my encoding in linux and store on a fat32 partition so my Ipod can pick them up, in fact (at home) the only time I boot windows is to update the ipod, I really must look for a linux prog to do this, just laziness as I dont have the net at home anymore.

Herbert   10 #17 Posted December 2, 2006 My pc phone has wm player, is their any need to rip as mp3 rather than the default wma when adding music. I have wm11 on my laptop and although it gives mp3 an option it wont without an encoder although I have tried to install lame. Should I stick with wma?
