When I ripped my CDs to FLAC, and tried playing the FLAC files with Winamp, 
in real time, I got horrible sound quality. It was suggested that my CPU 
just wasn't fast enough to uncompress the files on the fly AND deliver good 
sound. I never tried this with WMA  lossless, and don't know if the results 
would be any different. But just thought I'd report that, for anyone else 
who might want to try the experiment.

Does WMA Lossless ahve any advantage over FLAC or vice versa?
