Just what is MP4? Is that something using MPEG-2 AAC, or
MPEG-4 AAC or what?

There is an MPEG-4 standard, but it's not issued yet.
There is a new MPEG audio standard in MPEG-2 that is issued,
that has shown much better performance than MP3 or any of the other
tested algorithms in tests run with known and well-tested encoders
of good performance.
