itunes will convert files into m4a, although it calls it apple lossless format and turns the mp3's in to 30mb+ file

No, MP4 is a video file! M4A is the audio only version of the MP4 file.
think of it as MP4Audio Only - MP4A - M4A....

No. MP3 is MPEG layer 3. MP4 is MPEG layer 4.

Must just be the iPhone. The store has protected .m4a's but it just uses the AAC encoder.
Another fun fact... .mov = .mp4 just tailored for Quicktime.
