Good God people, MP3's are 1998. This is 2009.

The major online distributor of music distributes in...wait for it:

MP4! That's right, AAC.

What is the issue with converting your old MP3's to MP4's in i-tunes or another program? Is it so hard to highlight them, and press a button that says "convert"?

My complaint is that I can't seem to find where to put the vinyl records into the DSi. It says it plays music, but there is nothing in the instructions about lp's. :(

Okay I understand Nintendo's decision if it doesn't want to pay for royalties but what I don't understand is why so many people seem to think everyone should just be happy converting all their music when they are already in the format which is standard.  You say this is not 1998.  Well I started ripping all my cds to WMA format back in 1998 so I could listen on an mp3 player.  I love Windows Media and its ripping tools.  I also downloaded a bit from Napster back then so picked up a few MP3s.  Since 1998 any new CD I bought I would rip with Windows Media.  So I have 10 years worth of ripped WMA.  For others it would be 10 years worth of MP3s. 

I'm not interested in playing music on DSi but if I did I wouldn't want to convert 10 years worth of music because it is now 2009 and a new format has surfaced.

 

in 1998...

 

 

in 1998 people, the latest OS from microsoft was windows 98 and i don't mean second edition. Maybe you guys would like to think it's that far back, but it's more like around 2000.

 

On another note, mp3 is the standard format and i don't get people who claim otherwise... because they are horribly wrong.
