Re: [PLUG] Best solution for Audio files
|
I don't have an IPOD but I do have itunes for windows and I have ripped
CD's with it to aac (m4a). I am surprised this is not supported on the
IPOD. It is even supported in the Zune, an MS product...
AAC (.mp4, .m4a, .m4b, .mov): Up to 320 Kbps, Low Complexity (LC), up to
48-kHz sample rate
