don't think this extends to burning on CD's. It will transfer to specific

Hi Bruce.
I've never used Flak so can't give a comparison as such but comparing WMA

900kpbs with no change to sound quality obviously.
As an example,
What about the size of compression, how does Flac and Windows Media
compare? If both are lossless, I'll go with whichever is smallest, period.
My pro-FLAC bias is based on the simple fact that it was the first
lossless compression I ever saw.
