Texas Instruments Incorporated and Fraunhofer IIS announced plans to develop the first MP3+AAC encoders for portable audio players. Combining Fraunhofer's software and TI's DSP manufacturers can add on-board AAC and MP3 encoding functionality to portable MP3 players. Consumers can then encode the songs directly from CD without the need for a PC. Brilliant!
