Hi, I'm surprised this device doesn't play AAC files. Since iPods are the number 1 music player in the world, its a pretty popular format. Probably only 2nd to mp3 actually. Ricardo Walker rica...@appletothecore.info Twitter:@apple2thecore www.appletothecore.info On May 11, 2012, at 8:11

Hi, from what I know, simply copying and pasting won't convert it. Also, you will need to be careful if the iTunes song or media is drm protected. If it is, then you can't convert it and if there is a way, it's not allowed as a discussion on this list. -- Raul A. Gallegos I have 6 locks on my
