AIFF isn't compressed either, just like WAV, so there's no point in using that,
I don't know AAC myself, but a quick google tells me this is an Apple
custom compressed QuickTime format (
http://www.apple.com/mpeg4/aac/)
and according to the Apple page, it's the shit... but hey, they are
talking about their own product, so what do you expect,
it all depends on what the soft you're going to be jamming those tunes
in supports I guess,
can you crank up the MP3 quality when ripping with iTunes btw?
Otherwise I'd go for that, but then again, I hate quicktime...
