Questions about AAC+

[ClassicRox]

I have a few questions about AAC+ encoding, and I'd be very appreciative to anyone who could help me.

1. Is this form of encoding at least equal to 128kps stereo streaming?

2. What and where do I need to download in order to be able to encode to AAC+?

3. Will encoding into this format allow non-Winamp users to continue to tune in? (mostly regarding Windows Media Player users).

4. Will song titles still be sent to the listener?


Thanks in advance!

EDIT: Needed to add Question #4
