Audio File Formats Supported by iPod mini
• AAC (M4A, M4B, M4P) (up to 320 Kbps)
• Apple Lossless (a high-quality compressed format, available using iTunes 4.5 or later)
• MP3 (up to 320 Kbps)
• MP3 Variable Bit Rate (VBR)
• WAV
• AA (audible.com spoken word, formats 2, 3, and 4)
• AIFF
A song encoded using Apple Lossless format has full CD-quality sound, but takes up
only about half the amount of space as a song encoded using AIFF or WAV format. The
same song encoded in AAC or MP3 format takes up even less space. When you import
music from a CD using iTunes, it is converted to AAC format by default.
If you are using a Windows PC, you can convert nonprotected WMA files to AAC or MP3
format. This can be useful if you have a library of music encoded in WMA format. For
more information, open iTunes and choose Help > iTunes and Music Store Help.
iPod mini does not support WMA, MPEG Layer 1, MPEG Layer 2 audio files, or
audible.com format 1.
