As I mentioned, with the v1.12 firmware the SanDisk Clip Jam will now play 
dafhigh, dafstd and hlsaacstd files.  These are all AAC-LC.  It will also 
play hlsaaclow and hafmed files, despite the SBR components.  Presumably it 
ignores the SBR components which is what it is supposed to do if it can't 
play them.  Curiously it will not play dafmed files.  It just skips silently 
to the next file.

Another oddity about dafmed is the download speed.  dafhigh and hlsaacstd 
download at about 40Mbit/s.  dafstd is about 25Mbit/s.  dafmed is nearly as 
slow as hafmed at about 2Mbit/s.

These comparisons were done with b08vwhrg and b08xbhgy.
