.wav is not a music format. It's meant for pure sound clips and doesn't even have the capability of adding metadata like artist and song name. If you care about sound quality then just use FLAC.
The streaming quality from Google Music is top notch, it just seems that you had a problem getting the music into the service due to an antiquated format.
- mattmcknight 12y agoThe problem is with this part of the statement: "Google Cast Ready speakers pull content directly from the cloud, so you’ll get the best audio quality" Pulling content from the cloud doesn't not mean you'll get "the best" audio quality.
- Sargos 12y agoStreaming over the internet will yield better quality than a Bluetooth stream which compresses the music. The bits that hit the speaker are as high quality as the source material.
- mattmcknight 12y agoRight, that would then be "better than bluetooth", not "the best technology". In particular, the network induces latency and buffering problems.
