For instance the kids do not have an iPod. They own a Creative Muvo V100 who just knows to handle the common MP3 format.

In my humble opinion I do like the AAC much more than MP3 and most of my audio files are compressed with that codec.

To make it available for the portables I need to convert them to MP3. And that it so easy with iTunes itself.

iTunes is really great to use it as an audio converter. It supports different formats like AIFF, WAV, MP3 and AAC.

All formats are using their specified codecs with several advantages (small file size) and some disadvantages (loss of quality).

You can select the different options with the menubar going to “Preferences”, “General”, “Import Settings”. There just choose your favourite output format from the entire dropdown list and set the resulting quality.
