Will I ever be able to use songs in AAC format? Movie Maker only excepts
MP3? Is that correct or will I have to re-rip my collection of 4000 songs?
Help?

I doubt it. MM probably supports WMA and WAV (probably). Why not use
something like WMA Lossless for your collection? Mint quality for the local
machine and other devices on the network. Then when you use WMP10 to sync
your music to a portable device if it needs to it'll auto re-encode to a
selected bitrate for the device. All the decent devices on the market today
support this.

With storage so cheap everyone should really be using lossless by now. Not
codecs where data is thrown away like MP3 and AAC.
