Windows Media Player doesn't have an MP3 encoder built into it. It encodes WMA files.
The latest Windows Media Player 10 for XP does have an mp3 encoder in addition to wma. You can make the change in Tools > Options > Rip Music.

I'm thoroughly confused, but it's good that you use Vorbis (wish my iPod could play Vorbis files).

Isn't it the other way around?

I avoid the issue by using vorbis....
No, listening tests have not backed up MS's claims that WMA sounds better than MP3 at the same bitrate.

Thanks. Is the Lame Mp3 encoder much better (faster, higher quality, etc.) than the one built-in to WMP?
Windows Media Player doesn't have an MP3 encoder built into it. It encodes WMA files. MP3 may be better than WMA at a given bitrate, but many people can't tell the difference.
