Sounds like you don't understand wav files, MP3's or anything to do with compression.

Here's how it works. Regular uncompressed audio files are wav's. As you've found out those files are large, too large to email usually. This is why compression was invented oh, 15 years ago. I want to say where have you been but I understand some folks are late to the party.

Two common commpression schemes, MP3 and WMA. WMA is Microsoft's default scheme and it works very well, Biab and RB both can save your file using WMA, nothing to do on your part but select it. To my ears WMA's sound pretty good but most people like the control you get with using the MP3 format. MP3's require you install a codec on your PC. Codec = COmpression/DECompression. Lame is a free MP3 codec and most of us use another free program called Audacity to do MP3 conversions. You take your saved wav file and open it up in Audacity. Both MP3's and WMA are small enough files to email. Also, that's what's used with all these Ipod type music players and smartphones, both the ones you carry around and the ones in late model cars. Depending on the bit rate used 56 up to 320, the file size is maybe 10-30% of the size of a raw wav file. The higher the bitrate the better the quality. That means you can load up to 10 times the songs into an Ipod or smartphone than you could if they were wav's. To most listeners you can't tell the difference unless you're sitting down in a pretty good studio comparing file types on good quality speakers. Walking around or listening in your car there's no way you can hear any difference because you're out in the world with noise. Technically there is some loss of sound quality but it's minimal.
