Rockbox supports whatever formats people have spent their spare time
implementing decoders for. No-one has volunteered to write a WMA
decoder yet (but some preliminary work has been done), which is why
Rockbox doesn't support WMA.

I'm sure it will happen at some point in the future, but as no active
developers appear to use WMA to encode their music (and no-one who uses
WMA has become a developer), it probably won't be soon.

Dave.
