Lossless on Shuffle

Question

Lossless on Shuffle

I'm glad whoever's reading this has taken time to click on this thread. Now I will tell you my life story.. err, i mean problem. I'm trying to compress + convert my binaural beats sound files into a format that can be played on IPod shuffle, without any quality loss. So far it has rejected *.m4a, *.flac, *.wv files (all Lossless). Any suggestions?

ah okay, that was very helpful and you just gave me a list of things not to try. Now is there a way to compress wav files? yet keep the quality and still be able to play it on Shuffle.

If not, can anyone tell me the best format to use to get the most out of quality?

Now is there a way to compress wav files?
AAC or MP3.

What I meant to ask was whether there was a way to compress Wav files yet preserve format and therefore quality. I guess that's just wishful thinking.

So out of these two lossy ones, which would be the better alternative?
