Re: iPod Music File-Formats?

Can anyone direct me to the information which would identify what are the allowable/supported formats for music files that are playable on the iPod?

Specifically, I am wondering whether the iPod adopts whatever Quicktime codecs are needed to expand whatever files are downloaded so they can be converted into samples of playable audio or if there are just a few formats that are supported by the iPod player software - and, if so, what are those formats?


iPod supports PCM (WAV, AIFF), AAC, Protected AAC, and MP3. It's not extendable by third-parties as firmware is provided by Apple and there's no way to load third-party software.
