Fair warning, though conclusions not accurate. - LairWareBeastie
I will have a version 1.0.1 out later today which will repair any AAC files which 1.0 rendered unplayable, and have ensured that MPFreaker 1.0.1 won't affect AACs in this manner anymore.
Two important facts:
1) MPFreaker 1.0 only does this to AAC files which were already misnamed as ".mp3" files. This should be pretty rare. MPFreaker itself never renames files or converts song files from AAC to MP3.
2) MPFreaker 1.0 is only adding MP3-style tag information at the beginning of these misnamed files, not destroying them or actually converting them into MP3 format song files. For this reason, MPFreaker 1.0.1 will be able to return any affected AAC files back to normal merely by viewing a playlist or directory containing them.
