Huh??? This is almost _never_ the case in my opinion, especially when using popular cloud services for music playback. Pretty sure I just had to nerf a high quality .WAV file to a .WMV 20 minutes ago before I could even upload it to google music.
.wav is not a music format. It's meant for pure sound clips and doesn't even have the capability of adding metadata like artist and song name. If you care about sound quality then just use FLAC.
The streaming quality from Google Music is top notch, it just seems that you had a problem getting the music into the service due to an antiquated format.
The problem is with this part of the statement:
"Google Cast Ready speakers pull content directly from the cloud, so you’ll get the best audio quality"
Pulling content from the cloud doesn't not mean you'll get "the best" audio quality.
Streaming over the internet will yield better quality than a Bluetooth stream which compresses the music. The bits that hit the speaker are as high quality as the source material.
