I trying to find an audio converter that can turn AAC songs into a MP3 format, this also needs to work with Windows Vista. Can anyone here help me?
-
That's what you get for buying Apple products.
-
What? Last time I checked, neither Windows Vista nor the AAC format were "Apple products."

Only a thirty-day trial, but by searching www.download.com for AAC I imagine it wouldn't be hard to find another, less restrictive program. This was simply the first result I saw.

My shot-in-the-dark assumption was that he had an iPod, which is the only reason I have ever heard of for songs to be in AAC format.
Why'd you get so defensive over my Apple comment? Huh? Huuuuuuh?
-
I remember hearing something about a audio converter. I have a couple of audio converters on my computer. I'll try and find info about them. One of them on my computer is called switch.
-
Get Winamp, turn on the Nullsoft Disk Writer output, play the files to output them as WAV, then encode them.
Also where the heck else do you get AAC besides iTunes?

I was only stating the truth. Apple doesn't own the AAC format.

iTunes can convert it.

I kinda wanted him to learn that on his own, which is why I didn't mention it.

iTunes can convert it.
Itunes can make an MP3 file an AAC file, I needed it to be the other way around.
-
iTunes is also a very very terrible program.
-
I've heard good things about dBpoweramp (http://www.dbpoweramp.com/dmc.htm).
-
Well, I thought iPod songs were M4As, but maybe that's just me...
Yeah, I dunno what version of iTunes you've got, but it should work both ways (MP3-->AAC and vice-versa).
-
iTunes is also a very very terrible program.
But it's fine when all you wanna do with it is listen to music (all the NORMAL audio file types), watch movies, transfer stuff to MP3 players, and burn CDs.
Did I ever mention that my QuickTime player can also play Windows Media files?
-
That doesn't stop it from being terrible. Inefficient, badly implemented resource hogging programs are terrible. And please, "normal"? It even has to have separate components installed to play Ogg.
-
Which leaves us with the question: what is the best audio player?
I used to think it was Winamp, but the new versions are starting to get slow and clunky.

Only obsessed nerds use Ogg. I can't think of ANY time I've had to use that file type.
-
I've never heard of it?!
-
megamush is proving my point, Chup.
-
Obsessed nerds are the only people that want smaller file sizes for the same quality of music? That realize that MP3 is an outmoded, obsolete file format? I hate to say it, but because megamush hasn't heard of it doesn't really mean a whole lot. (Like, anything at all.)

Hey, the guy asked for help, not a critique of his music player.
