According to Google they support .aac:
http://developer.android.com/guide/appendix/media-formats.html

According to Corona they don’t:

http://docs.coronalabs.com/guide/media/audioSystem/index.html#formats

Is the Corona doc still up to date and .aac not yet supported?

Hi @Juf Jannie,

Corona does not support AAC on Android, so the documentation is up-to-date. While Google documents that Android supports AAC on the newest OS versions, this does not mean that all Android devices running that version support it. This is because the device manufacturer might have chosen not to pay royalties for the AAC decoder to lower the cost of the device.

Take care,

Brent
