Operator error (also known as I screwed up), I meant to write AAC files are only accessible by iPods instead of MP3 files. I still don't want to be locked into iTunes playback devices. I also want to be able to make cd's out of my records/tapes and I don't know that this is easily doable in iTunes.

It seemed to be the default setting for Windows Media Player. I have no particular allegiance to this format other than wanting the files stored on the PC's external hard drive as a backup. Storing them with iTunes is not preferred due to the fact that they are MP3 files and inaccessible except with an iPod

Why do you think that MP3 is "inaccessible except with an iPod." MP3 is the most universal of audio formats. It is hard to find something that won't play MP3. Even Sony now supports MP3.

You can set iTunes as high as 320kbps to give yourself a high quality reference copy. You can then downsample and/or use VBR to fit more tunes in your Nano.
