Im sorry, i know this question has been asked before... many many many many times... but i never found any real help... i wanna know what extensions compress the file better than .mp3. i want to have songs on my new palm pilot ( Ipaq rx3115, which i am very very happy about, but might upgrade a little), and i havent bought a memory card yet, so i only have about 50mb right now. what program can i use to compress my mp3s and still be able to play them on windows media player?? i hope you guys understand my question, thanks much!

You can compress them to mp4 format using dbpoweramp or some other tool.
www.dbpoweramp.com
Of course you have to download the free mp4 codec(FAAC mp4) from codec central on that site.

you can also download iTunes from
www.apple.com and convert your mp3s to m4a (mp4 audio). just make sure to rename the extensions to mp4 before uploading to your ipaq. You can change the settings so that you can convert it to mono mp4 to further reduce the size of your songs.

about 14 stereo mp4s and 28 mono mp4s (acceptable quality)
edit: quality of mono is much like stereo except that there will be no left-right panning/separation effect.

I converted a few with dbpoweramp, and they wont play... they are mp4 format... but am i forgeting a step or something?
i convert it to mp4... and it copies it so the mp3 and mp4 are there, and i send the mp4 to my ipaq... the mp4 doesnt play on my computer or my ipaq...

dbpoweramp doesn't have that option that's why I recommended iTunes. If you don't want iTunes however you can use another software like
cdex to convert your mp3s to mono before you convert them to mp4 using dbpoweramp. It may sound tedious but actually it's not as everything is automated after you make the proper settings.
edit: EastCoastStar, does your ipaq have necessary resources (codec) to play mp4 (AAC) files?
