I found 64kbps to have too many artifacts on wma. The lowest setting I could live with was 96kbps. I found that setting to be the best compromise between file size and clarity with my Nomad Jukebox. That said, I'm now in the process of re-ripping my collection to 160kbps mp3 for my empeg. I'm not willing to wait for the wma support. If I had more experience with VBR I would probably try that.
