Windows media player will rip to WMA, iTunes will convert WMA to any of its supported formats.

Guess what - as you suspected, once you have lost it you can't get it back. The lossless version will be identical to the 320K AAC but the detail lost during compression has gone forever. Try it and see, you may find you can't hear the difference (although you'll always know it's not as good as it could be)

Unfortunately there was a bit of a setback on Wednesday© evening. When the time came to launch the superstructure, prior to beginning the fitting out phase, it was discovered that it wouldn't fit through the living room door! After a moments headscratching I had to completely dismantle it to get it outside. To be truthful I've lost interest

Oh ye of little faith - Keith's a profeshneal and doesn't trust to luck. Skill, knowledge, experience and the keyboard skills of Rick Wakeman are what he will use to bring the new Beoworld to life!

Flappo The Grate: there's only one hd channel , bbc hd and that shows repeats of last of the summer whine all day long. the rest of the channels are like freeview , ie; dross and poor bit rate to boot. the pic is actually worse than freeview imo That's not quite true - there's also ITV HD.

Hardwriter: ........not sure that comparing a DVD result on a BV7 to a Sony or Panasonic is actually that meaningful either. Not sure I agree here - if it is better then in proves it can be done, regardless of the manufacturer. At the price involved there is no excuse for not being the best in class in all modes.

It would certainly make a members get-together troublesome It seems that Beoworld is doing something right! - congratulations to all those who make Beoworld what it is today
