AAC File Formats

AAC Format

Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) is a standardized, lossy compression and encoding scheme fordigital audio. Designed to be the successor of the MP3 format, AAC generally achieves better sound quality than MP3 at similar bit rates.

Nowadays AAC is not only acceptable in iPhone, iPod, iPad but also supported on PlayStation Portable, Wii (with the Photo Channel 1.1 update installed for Wii consoles purchased before late 2007), Sony Walkman MP3series and later, mobile phones made by Sony Ericsson; Nokia; Android; and WebOS - based mobile phones. AAC has also seen moderate adoption on in-dash car audio especially on high-end units such as the Pioneer AVIC series.
