    Windows Media Application, and how does it relate in the concept of portable MP3's... For instance, does wma fit more on a 64mb card than mp3 or wave? Also how does one encode in that format?

    WMA is very similar to MP3, according to Microsoft it sounds better at the same bit rate relative to MP3.

    I use .wma on my nomad II. It is nice because you can fit almost twice as many songs in the same space. I do notice a the audio quality isn't quite as good at this compression but it's not much of a difference and for the increase in capacity I think it is worth it, especially if you are just using it for background music while you study or work out.
