To do that , you'd have to delve into the NDK and build a native app in C, modify the decoder so it works on the SnapDragon Processor, and then build a new media player app around it.

Just grab a transcoder like Handbrake, and transcode from WMA to OGG Vorbis or any of the other Formats available here: developer.android.com/guide/appendix/media-formats.html

Does this mean that when people with a Nexus One have the phone updated, they lose WMA support?

I dont have a N1 or Desire to be honest, i have a little Hero that i am messing about with, and this thread came up first in my google search for "froyo 2.2 wma"

I was under the impression that HTC added WMA support to Sense, but I've never had the need to try it out myself.
