Don't know what format you're talking about, but i can say that it depends on quality. For CD quality, it usually takes ~2 minutes per track to convert between most formats, while with near-CD (96 kbps), it's significantly faster - about half a minute per track. But 400... that's crazy, i'd say just leave it at mp3... i have ~1500 songs on my comp at this time, i'd hate to think about converting them to, say, ogg....

Atrac is a format by sony and it can be used on the new atrac cd player i got by them. when converted to this format I can put up too 490 songs on 1 CD that why i need the mp3 to atrac3plus info. u should check the cd player out they kick ass :D

This would depend on the speed of your processor.

I believe this format was only introduced, by Sony, to avoid any legalities that may arise due to music piracy.
