Microsoft's planning a major release for Windows 10 at the end of the year which should include support for AAC audio through Bluetooth. For the uninitiated, AAC or Advanced Audio Codec is important for "lossless" audio streaming to Apple's headphones and will also benefit iTunes and Apple Music playback on Windows. Typically, Windows 10 supports a handful of industry-standard audio codecs like AptX but still doesn't quite cover all the popular ones. Apple, meanwhile, has supported Advanced Audio Coding for sometime now as a high-quality lossy codec for streaming audio wirelessly. Naturally, that has prompted other services and audio device makers to also support the codec. As  per a report by  The Verge , on top of AAC support, Microsoft will also better how Windows handles Bluetooth inputs. As of now, Windows will show multiple devices for different Bluetooth profiles — for example, with the Surface Headphones connected to a Windows 10 device, you might se...
