I know that Microsoft designed the WMA format, so I probably won't be able to get the information I'm looking for, but I'll post here and see if anyone can help.

I would like to find specifications for the WMA audio format, such as, META tags go in these bytes/bits, the name goes in theses bytes, etc...

This would allow me to create and edit .WMA files, which would be really good. Does anyone know whether Microsoft ever released that information?

Anything you could tell me would be helpful.

Don't know if this could help, but ASF was all I could find.

can you use wma in your dbp productions without licences? i mean the format not the content itself?

greed: Yes, you can use .wma without needing a licence, as long as it's unprotected content - although, that's somewhat hard to come by these days...

Phaelax: Nice find - I think .asf and .wma are similar, so I'll try to use this information unless I can find something better.
