Do you delete music you download if you find out it is a .WMA?

I used to download nothing but MP3's at 192 or higher, but sometimes I end up accidentally get a .WMA file (at 127) and I would just delete it.

I just keep them now. I think they sound pretty good. No different than MP3's af far as my ears can tell. Are the file sizes any different?
 
I don't download them in the first place, but if I did I would. The wma's I've come across have sounded bad, and I also don't like it as it's M$'s.

That's funny coming from someone using Win XP Pro.

Now there's an intelligent post.
 
I usually encode CD's as WMA because it's easier (when I tried to use EAC I must have messed up settings, or forgotten to turn on DAE as it was a fresh install, so the wav files were blank, and so were the .ogg's I encoded to).
I only have 128k mp3's anyway due to dialup 🙁
Don't get many wma's, but I keep them.

Want to give me a Linux distro that runs games without a monthly fee winex or the other 95% of programs that are made for windows & windows only? mp3s are better & painless
 
I tried ripping a CD as MP3 (EAC+lame--standard) and WMV and couldn't tell the difference at 128-192. Though I've read that anything higher then 192, MP3 sounds better. I don't have the proper equipment to notice the difference.

If I did download a wmv and it sounded fine, I would keep it.
