WMA Lossless

I tried backing up a cd using this codec and found it to be really good and pretty fast. I was curious if anybody found anything negative about it that I might not know about ?
 
not as widespread and accepted as FLAC? IIRC, it is less efficient compression ratio wise, and is NOT an open-source unlike FLAC or APE.
 
I used MP3 192 kbps. That is enough for me until I get a REALLY nice home stereo system. Lossless seems like too much space taken up for not enough benefit

I dont think OP was asking whether going lossless is worth it or not. only he can decide if its beneficial to him, and trying to convince him out of it seems rather moot. lets try not to turn this into yet another lossless vs lossy argument. when he is asking about the specific pros and cons of wma lossless i am pretty confident that he knows what he needs as far as that choice goes.

Basically I wanted a codec where no sound quality was lost so that left out lossy codecs because I can tell the difference and if I do burn a cd I wanted the almost exact cd back agian. I am then burning several albums to DVD, they end up being in the 200-400 meg range so I can fit quite a number of them on a single DVD+R.

who gives a fvck? i would never understand why people are SO persistent in trying to prove their opinion is the only right way. the raynor guy came off as being annoyed by the diehards who swear by lossless and preach everyone lossless is the only way. yes, i have seen some people like that, but you are no different if you try to tell someone he doesnt need lossless. eliticism goes both ways.
