It seems that "m4a" files can not be read with CoreAudio's "AudioFile" on OS X 10.3 (and earlier). The file extension "aac" is listed as a readable extension, but a very quick attempt to decode an m4a file (renamed aac) on 10.2 has failed.

This is correct. The audio file API did not understand m4a on 10.3. I don't know if this changes with Quicktime 7 installed on a 10.3 system. Assuming it does, you can use the QT7 Audio Extraction APIs instead to get audio from the file. I don't believe you have such an option on 10.2 to my knowledge.

Failure is not an option. It is a privilege reserved for those who try.
