www.apple.com/quicktime/download supports AAC, the next-generation audio format after mp3! |

Don't get too excited by AAC... The fuckers covered by so many liscense agreements by Dolby and others that it's a fucker finding a decent encoder/player...(apart from this new QT, APPLE got enuff dosh)...maybe they've lightened up a bit but when I looked into it 6 months ago, they were actively hunting down freeware AAC encoders & getting em taken out of commission... My MP3CDPLYAER supports it, that why I was interested...but gave up after all the hassle plus AAC isn't a HUGE leap forward... It does have a number of advantages over MP3 (less so MP3 VBR) but certainly not enough to worry MP3; the markets already chosen... (Check the AAC-AUDIO website and the names involved...this is a back door way of somehow grabbing control back of the standard (MP3 caught on via unliscensed encoders but they weren't quick enough to clamp down...)...) fuck big companies...the same ones who want to put copy protection shit on stuff....they sooooo hate MP3 but they've let the genie outta the bottle and AAC is an attempt to get it back... |

New quicktime? excellent! I don't know much about this new AAC format...must be similar to Microsoft's new proprietary audio format for media player. |

I still haven't heard the quality of an AAC file but I think there are demos at Apple's site. I'm not as well informed as jand and therefore can't really rave about it...yet. |
