I did read this: https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-m4a-fo...io-formats
The wiki information looks more reliable to me.

The aac codec is widely used by organisations other than apple, such as the BBC, because it is more efficient than mp3. The file extension m4a is widely used for audio files encoded with this codec, since it is the default format for audio data in mp4 video files. It is lossy. The apple lossless codec (sometimes referred to as alac) has the file extension m4a applied to it by apple, and many manufacturers and other organisations recognise alac as part of the m4a standard.

CA has conflicting statements about aac/alac/m4a files on its website, but the more recent information seems to suggest that all of these are supported and are rendered gaplessly.
