With all this talk of the iPod now supporting MP4s, I was wondering what the advantages were to them. Do they have better sound quality for equivalent bit rates? (and hopefully as a result, equal sound at lower bit rates) I have all my music archived to Monkey's Audio, so it's easy to switch back and forth between MP3s for my desktop speakers and iPod, however, if the gains aren't that great, I'm not sure if it's worth bothering with. I have my APE files for real listening, however, if by moving to MP4 I could put an extra 20% more songs on my iPod, it might be worth setting up a batch convert. (I have a 5g iPod, and a few more songs would be really cool. for a 5% benefit, the effort is probably not worth it.) Are there any good sites with relatively concise information? I've looked through a number of sites, but most of the time, I'm forced to read through tons of posts on forums, most of which have very little real content. Todd, thanks for the simple instructions on MP4 creation.
