Quote Why is the BBC stopping using Windows Media Audio?
Windows Media Audio is an outdated format, so we’d need to spend lots of money to keep supporting it.
It would also restrict the development of BBC Radio, limiting our ability to innovate and support new platforms.

I think their excuse about using WMA costing lots of money is a bit silly.

Quote Windows Media Audio (WMA) is an audio data compression technology developed by Microsoft.
The name can be used to refer to its audio file format or its audio codecs.
It is a proprietary technology that forms part of the Windows Media framework. WMA consists of four distinct codecs.
The original WMA codec, known simply as WMA, was conceived as a competitor to the popular MP3 and RealAudio codecs.
WMA Pro, a newer and more advanced codec, supports multichannel and high resolution audio.
A lossless codec, WMA Lossless, compresses audio data without loss of audio fidelity (the regular WMA format is lossy).
WMA Voice, targeted at voice content, applies compression using a range of low bit rates.
Since other devices don't use it, which version of WMA should the BBC use?
