Until a few years ago, most of the music you could BUY in the ITMS included DRM, but that went out after Apple renegotiated its contracts with the labels.
So, a serious answer to "why use AAC": there's a lot of material out there that compares AAC and MP3, and finds that, for a given bit rate, AAC sounds better. If one gives that kind of stuff credence, then using AAC for iPods and the like may be preferred. That's actually what I do - rip with dbpoweramp to FLAC and AAC, with the FLACs for SBS, and the AACs for iTunes. No idea about the OP's problem, though... -- kmr ------------------------------------------------------------------------ kmr's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10664 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=87962 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
