Dear Chris, I want to put together an audio cd of mp3 tracks because i could then fit more of them on one cd rather than carry many cds with me. I selected the songs - about 60 of them - from my music library and ;put them into one play list. Then I found an option in the advanced menu of iTune

Hi, There hasn't been DRM on iTunes music in years. I'm able to convert AAC files purchased from the iTunes store to mp3 with no problems at all. I don't see why one would need to create an mp3 file to burn an audio CD in the first place. Ricardo Walker rica...@appletothecore.info Twitter:@ap

Hi, iTunes will not allow the conversion of purchased content to mp3 files, directly anyway. The restriction is due to the DRM encoding and licensing restrictions. If you wish to use iTunes to do this, you must first burn an audio CD from your purchased content, then re-import the tracks. Yo

Hi everyone, I use the media player VLC to play my music. I really like it, and it plays just about everything. However, I've recently been having a problem, where it's skipping pretty badly. Do any of you guys who use VLC have any suggestions on how I can change my settings to stop this? I h
