Best compression method for music

[Mumbo Jumbo]

I've tried installing music on my ipaq but it takes too much room. I read that there was a file compression method that fits a file into half the size of an mp3 with little loss of quality. Please help!

You can re-encode your MP3 files into WMA files (Windows Media Audio).  The latest downloadable PocketPC Player Windows Media Player 7.1 supports Media V8 WMA's which allow for the good quality at lower bitrates.  <br><br>You can download the Media Player 7.1 Encoder Tool (or the Windows Media 8 Encoding Utility) to convert your MP3 into a WMA at a lower bitrate--say 32kbps to 64kbps with pretty good audio quality and half the file size or better.<br><br><br>

Offtopic:  There were two posts by Mumbo Jumbo that were the same. You answered one, I answered the other. I dunno what happened to the one in which you replied.<br>

[Paul]

[Matt Keys]

my guess is chris deleted it just after you submitted your reply.

[Paul]

damn, i actually helped him too.

[jongjungbu]

So did I. But if you want to take credit, i'll delete my post and u can put yours up instead.

[Chris Edwards]

sorry paul.. i deleted yours... jongjungbu and your post's were pretty much the same, so i pretty much picked one to delete.

[Paul]

i'll try not to take that as an insult.

[Matt Keys]

And once again, our poor little Paul got the short end of the straw. Like it matters~<br>Now quit posting so he can read it and see that it's all good.

[Paul]
