I just bought an IPod/4th Gen./40GB. I need someone to recommed an encoding format for me to use on the ITune (4.6) which will be appropriat for my new IPod. I don't plan to change the format often, if ever.

AAC and/or MP3 are the way to go. MP3 Is obviously more universal. AAC is better quality

AAC is better quality at low bit rates, but MP3s encoded at high-ish bitrates (192kps upwards) with a decent encoder (like LAME - I use the LAME-iTunes plugin: http://blacktree.com/apps/iTunes-LAME/) can sound very good indeed, and works with more software than AAC currently does.
