Title: Napster 2.0 is WMA What quality

Yes, most people in this forum say "who cares?"

But for those of us here who do believe in A future of legitimate audio distribution - does anyone know the bit rate of the songs for Napster 2.0? Hopefully VBR.

Also - it looks like you are going to have to use WMP to transfer your Napster downloads to a portable. I hope drivers gor the Rio Karma and Nomad Zen NX / Xtra are on the way.

Moved from general to other codecs.

I can't wait to fully enjoy this "legitimate audio distribuition".   
BTW: I loved this Napster 2.0 parody (http://www.downhillbattle.org/napster/)

f*ck the WMA format  and especially anykind of DRM bullshit - I want files that I can easily play on both my win machines and Debian Box without any limits. Will stick with borrowing /buying CDs and getting master files in a proper format like Flac or MPC. EDIT: don't want to touch MP3s at all anymore, would much rather prefer AAC if choosing between those two formats.
