*wtf is wma*	[forward as email]
Im trying to find rare(ish) songs from albums(not whole albums) and i find 99.9% in mp3 format ok. What is annoying me is wma's which wants to download media rights.Is there a way to go around media rights and if not why do people have wma's in there sharing folders. ps. HAPPY NEW YEAR

Most of them are just spam anyway, served up by spammers that automatically apply everyone's search terms to the file names. Even at high bitrates those wma files are never going to be as good as a proper MP3 file, so you may as well filter out the file type.

Sorry forgot to add that WMA files are actually Windows Media Audio files WMA files are in fact usually better quality than MP3 but less portable media players play wma whereas almost all play MP3
