Good question. AAC is supported through transcoding. In a typical
SlimServer + SB scenario transcoding works well and there is no
problem.

AAC support in firmware is needed when you want to avoid transcoding.
For example when SlimServer is setup on a NAS or the music is stored
online ( Oboe Locker ). Someone could argue that these are very
specific scenarios and that number of users interested in the requested
enhancement is tiny. However, since both WMA and OGG support was added
to the firmware in the past, there is still hope that this will be
addressed in the future...
