hi guys ...
i know AIFF is definitely i waste of space as the original earbud won't handle that kind of quality ... so, my question is ... what's the ideal/optimum format to store in iPod? MP3 (bitrate), AAC (bitrate) ...
thanks in advance!

There's no answer to that, really. It depends on the person. You might try encoding some tracks at various bitrates and see whether you can tell any difference. I personally would go with a 160 AAC file. I don't think I can really tell the difference between 128 AAC and 160, but I thought I would make it a bit higher since I could (and this would also give me more leeway if I wanted to re-encode these files later on). But if you're concerned about quality, you might want to replace the earbuds with something a little better.

i think ideal is 160 AAC or 192 mp3...n e thing higher for the reg ipod headphones is a waste of space.
