Convert iTunes to MP3 Format - Comments Page 32

I would like to ask please, if once I have changed my import settings to 'MP3 Encoder' - will it solve the problem for future purchasing of songs from itunes in regards being able to burn a CD in MP3 format and not be restricted to an 80min cutoff on the audio format?

EDITOR'S NOTE: Changing that setting won't affect the format of any new songs you purchase from iTunes.

Converting from AAC to MP3 is not recommended as you are re-encoding an already compressed audio file. You should mention this in your article because these are people who have paid for their music and ultimately are destroying the file. If you must do it, make a copy of the file first and save the original as backup.

Superb advice, really worked. Thanks !!!!

Thank you sosososo much!! I'm not ianything savvy, so your super easy instructions and pictures were amazingly helpful!! I'll definetly return to your site!! THANKS!!

How about if I have a Mac? Will it work?

Just had to say thankyou one hundred times over for your great, easy to follow advice :-)

Thank you so very much for posting this! I was driving myself crazy trying to figure out why I couldn't burn my iTunes songs onto a CD, but by following the very easy-to-follow instructions here, I was finally able to do it! Thanks again! It was immensely helpful!

I am using a iMac and iTunes. I bought the song from iTunes and could not plat it in my MP3 Player. I tried burning a cd of the song, then importing it to iTunes and converting it to a MP3 and it still will not convert the song to an MP3.

THANKS U SAVED MY BUTT ON A SCHOOL PRESENTATION!
