The Ipod never supported and still does not support the WMV format.

Factually true. The iPod, being a music player, does not support the Windows Media Video format. But for this discussion I'll assume you meant Windows Media Audio (WMA).

However, your original assertion was "and if you have any WMV [WMA] files you are SOL." That is factually wrong since iTunes will convert your WMV files to a format the iPod can read when you import your current library and transfer the resulting files to your iPod. The iPod may not play WMA, but that doesn't make someone with a WMA library "SOL" as you stated.

So you are going to repeat the nonsense too.

Let's sum up your position: The Ipod supports the WMA file format as long as the file is coded in the AAC format.

Clue for the clueless: if you convert a WMA file to AAC, it is no longer a WMA file.

If you have WMA files, you are SOL with the Ipod unless you convert the files to another format with is pretty much guaranteed to degrade the file.

Your logic is so convoluted, you are going to need a Chiropractor.

NOTE: All VHS VCR's (oh no, the apostrophe!) support the BETA format - as long as you convert the BETA tapes to VHS!

LOL
