(or do you have to have a mac... I don't).

if you have iTunes on the pc, you should be able to download the album as mp3s.... then they could be emailed.

let me know if you think u can do it. :)

[Brewer]

Al, I didn't know PC users could do that. Cool!

[Jo]

He Al, shoot me an email!

[Big Al]

He Al, shoot me an email!

I gave her the gun...And I shot her. :dude:

sorry hey jo moment. you got mail. :)

just in case you didn't realize, offering "free jimi to the person that helps" means that you will have to authorize their computer. itunes store files can be played on up to three computers. if you give jo access, you'll have only two left for yourself.

and they won't be be mp3s, they'll be aac rips in the m4p container.

Veej has a point. I wanted to e-mail an MP3 to someone today, but the iTunes copy (I had the original CD) was in AAC format. I had to rip the MP3 direct from the CD to make it work.

[Veej007]

mp3, aac, mp4, m4a should all be playable anywhere as long as you have the proper input plugins installed. itunes sells songs in the restricted-use m4p format, though, so if you BUY an AAC as opposed to RIPPING it, sharing the tracks involves a bit more on your part.

You can convert AAC to mp3 right inside of iTunes, unless you want a rip from the original CD for sonic quality.

[VetteLover]

How do you do that? I must be missing something :confused:

[Big Al]

You can convert AAC to mp3 right inside of iTunes, unless you want a rip from the original CD for sonic quality.

it won't let you... it says it's protected :(
it can be transfered to an iPod tho.

Here's the deal:

The iTunes store sells you m4p files, which are copy-protected AAC files. You can authorize these on up to 3 computers, but to do so, you will need the username/password of the account which purchased them, which is still tied to the original purchaser's credit card.

You can download the m4p files onto an iPod and it will play them. But the iPod will only sync up with one computer at a time. So if you sync it with someone else's computer, and then plug it into your computer, you will lose all the music that was on it.

iTunes will not convert m4p files into mp3 or anything else.

But it will burn an audio CD from m4p files. That audio CD is then as unprotected as any audio CD. So, what you can do is buy the songs from iTunes, burn them onto CD, then rip the songs off the CD as mp3. You may experience some quality loss doing that, but it's about the only way to do what you want as far as I know. Good luck!
