AAC really stands for Advanced Audio Coding. An audio-encoding standard for MPEG-2 that is not backwa rd-compatible with MPEG-1 audio. They call it mp4 so people will think it is like mp3 but "one better" :)
According to Wikipedia, MP4 is:
| quote: |
MPEG-4 Part 14 or mp4, is a file format specified as part of the ISO/IEC MPEG-4 international standard. It is used to store media types defined by the ISO/IEC Moving Picture Experts Group, and can be used to store other media types as well. It is, or will be, typically used to store data in files, though it will be used in data streams and possibly in other ways |
