dalemccl, I know you asked only about quality, but there is another small difference. The .WAV files load a bit faster. If this is important to you, and you have the hard drive space, you can uncompress the .WMA files. The quality of the resulting .WAV will not change and is slightly less than the same-sized audiophile .WAV files.
