About MP2 to iPod Audio Conversion
Converting MP2 to iPod-optimized audio makes broadcast MPEG Audio Layer 2 playable on Apple's portable music player. Like all Apple devices, iPod never included MP2 decoding support. The iPod preset encodes to AAC at 128 kbps in an M4A container, matching the quality standard Apple established for its music ecosystem.
For iPod Classic users with large storage capacities, converting broadcast MP2 to efficient AAC maximizes the amount of content that fits while maintaining Apple's intended quality standard.
Why Convert MP2 to iPod Audio?
iPod users with DAB radio recordings, DVD rips, or other MP2 content need conversion for playback. The iPod's Wolfson DAC was designed around AAC at 128-256 kbps, making this encoding the optimal match for the hardware.
At 128 kbps AAC, broadcast MP2 at 256 kbps is fully captured — the quality matches what Apple designed the iPod to deliver.
Common Use Cases
- Building an iPod library from DAB radio recordings stored as MP2
