Hey kdillon !!



Welcome to PCWorld Community!



To be able to convert all formats to whatever ...

I would suggest you take a look at this one :

Format Facrory from Formatoz.com .

Use the "Local Site" to download.

import mp3s to itunes (guessing you own windows) and by default on itunes click on the song and right click on the song and click convert to aac. the conversion will start and you will have an mp3 version and aac. you can check out the file extension in windows explorer.

Hi, kdillon.

I hope you're not doing this to take advantage of AAC's superior sound quality, because if you are, you'll be disappointed.

The information that was lost when the audio was converted to MP3 cannot be regained by conversion. The sound will not get better.

In fact, it could get worse, because it will have gone through two separate lossy compressions, rather than just one.

iTunes is a good choice and the information above is correct...but missing one step...you need to make sure that iTunes is set to rip CDs to AAC. The convert function will convert to whatever iTunes is currently set to use as the default file type when ripping. Thus, if you have iTunes set to rip to MP3, then it will only convert that MP3 to another MP3 (at whatever setting you have iTunes set to rip it with). Thus, you need to make sure that the import settings in iTunes are set to AAC.
