Forgive my ignorance, but what do you mean by external? I already have one external to the head unit, in the trunk, an Alpine PDX-5.  Since I got the system there are now certain songs that I gravitate to especially when I am in that car. I've also honestly noticed that some songs have components I never even was aware of on the old stock sound system or in the Jeep, which has a decent but boomy system. I am starting a little list, though, of songs I'd like to get in a higher quality format, even if just a higher quality mp3 (I have a few songs I downloaded long ago that are just awful quality, but good songs worth "upgrading").

The iPod does read the ALAC (Apple Lossless) m4a files, as does iTunes, which I guess goes to figure since Apple came up with it. But, I'm not sure if it will play all m4a files or just the Apple ones. That's one reason I stuck with the little ol' mp3s on that NIN album ... the FLAC and WAVE files sound neat, but seem kind of like rocket science.
