Third, since 80% of mp3 players out there today are iPods (which all support AAC)
In the USA and other OPEC countries... but not 'out there' as a whole.'Out there' includes countries like India, China, Indonesia, Brazil etc, where there's a force to be reckoned: the el-cheapo Chinese players. OK, most of them look like/are garbage, but they're cheap as hell, and people buy them. Most of them does support ONLY MP3. And, in China, they're probably veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeery worried about MP3 patent problems
Don't count MP3 out yet. And even WMA, remember that Microsoft commands 90%+ of the desktop computer market.
