wma and dmr

[Woody06]

I'm building a music library and i keep swicthing back and forth between WMA and mp3 becuase i keep getting two different stories from different people, as of late ive used 128 wma becuase i was told it was as good or better than 192 mp3. I've got large speakers so i hear when the bitrate is too low so quality really matters to me. I was just wondering if I shouldn't use wma becuase of the DMR, I searched through old posts and this was the one thing that bothered me, i was just wondering how much of an issue it was, I'd really like to pick one standard and just stick to it becuase im really anal retentive about my music but i just can decide.
Any advice?

I don't know what person thinks 128wma is better than a 192 mp3 encoded with Lame. Go with 192 encoded with lame. Then you don't have to worry about anything.
