AAC now supported in Windows 7

I have a pretty extensive music collection all ripped directly from CD's I refuse to have downloaded stuff. I recently bought some MP3's from Amazon.com and they are DRM free MP3 files, perfect.. I can put them on any of my computers and ipods.. they play on ANYTHING... So now I hear Apple is going DRM free on iTunes music store, I think "great" then I find that its still in AAC format well it still limits me on where I can play it, such as any windows machine without iTunes, I have friends that refuse to install iTunes because it installs Quicktime along with it and we all know what a Piece of crap Quicktime is on Windows, its great on my Apples (same goes in the other direction for Windows Media player on Apple/Windows)

Well I hear that Windows Media in Windows 7 will support AAC (the non DRM version) so it will also support all the Media Extenders that run on Windows Media Player (I myself have AppleTV)

Just a little tip, let me know what you think.
