[quote elmo3]How many AAC players are out there?
AAC is, for all intents and purposes, a proprietary, closed format owned by Apple--no matter how "freely" they CURRENTLY make it available. It's no different than any of the "freely available" Microsoft proprietary technologies that you all love to hate.
MP3 is everywhere, Anything can play an MP3.
No thanks. I'll take MP3, in order that my music is TRULY available to me anywhere on anything.
Lots of devices support AAC. I recently had fairly basic cell phone that supports AAC. I also have a WindowsMobile device that supports it.
