From what I have read AAC is trademarked by Apple even for decoding... Also there's M4A and other weird formats... I have no idea why we cannot stick with simple MP3 for lossy and FLAC for loseless...wait I do, iTunes...
Anyway from this thread it seems there's no way to do that for 10.6+ using system features, correct? What a shame...

Cheers!

No, AAC is simply MPEG-4 audio.

(And trademarks wouldn't have anything to do with implementability. Patents would -- that's why Apple doesn't ship an MP3 encoder with a public API, and that's why LAME has to use weasel words like being "sample code" and not for use as a real encoder.)
