adsta · 29 Mar 2005, 2:54 PM

It's the newer version of mp3, sometimes called mp4 but mainly known as m4a. I'm pretty sure it will play on iTunes.

Abu Ghurayb · 29 Mar 2005, 4:06 PM

Yeah, what everyone else said.
Its the format itunes encodes to.

Zyklon · 29 Mar 2005, 7:58 PM

Indeed, I stick to mp3's though because I'm a conformist and stuff.

I don't like AAP/mp4/m4a whatever so I had to change all the default settings on iTunes. It was a bitch to learn to use but it's alright now I get. I like how you can customise all the songs.

LadyBec · 31 Mar 2005, 8:50 PM

no, I simply prefer creative zen players to Ipods, and WMP to itunes.
Plus ipods are just so damn ugly This is way cuter.
