AIFF music files - what is the max limit (bit rate, etc.)?
I recently purchased the FLAC version of an album and converted the files to AIFF using Max (sbooth.org). For the first time ever I am unable to copy these files to my iPod Classic (160Gb). I have never had this issue before, all AIFF files I have ever created have been able to be played and copied to my iPod.
bit rate: 4608 kbps
Sample size: 24 bit
Sample rate: 96 kHz
Have I exceeded the bit rate for this device? I cannot find the specification showing the max for it. Is there any other utility that would be more compatible - the files play perfectly in iTunes on both the Mac and Windows PC's I own.
Thanks!
Edit: I realize I can convert the files to AAC but I am looking for the extra fidelity of AIFF files on the output devices I use.
