Drag and drop won't make any difference.
What happens when you make a CD from an mp3 is what matters. In their effort to make it mindlessly simple, did the software maker retain full CD specs? Or did they make assumptions and limit spec to whatever they liked?
When you decode an mp3 file and save it as a lossless format (wav or aiff) no data is lost. But if you clip the data... that data is lost. So the question is, does WMP clip the data, or attempt to re-encode it before burning a CD? If so, you'll have damaged results. If not, you're golden.
If you're still getting the euphoria, it sounds like you still have subliminal data present.
