Just because the file is valid doesn't mean your Liquidsoap binary has
support for it. Did you download a Liquidsoap package or compile from
source?

I note that AIFF support is described as experimental in Liquidsoap
0.9.0 version of ocaml-natty here:

https://github.com/savonet/liquidsoap/blob/master/CHANGES

See also the note on little-endian AIFF (AIFF-C/sowt) here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_Interchange_File_Format

It would be good to determine exactly what kind of files you have there,
if not all AIFF's are the same.

My suggestion would be to write a script that converts your AIFF files
to FLAC, tags them with metadata based on the directory/file structure
or any other metadata you have, and tests them for validity. You should
not lose any audio quality, and you might reclaim 40% or more of the
disk space.

Cheers!

Daniel
