stick with i tunes you can burn them from your mp3 player or from itunes

 

I prefer Itunes myself as well. However if you can't figure it out, there is a way around it.

Burn the tracks to a CDRW in CD format....I know that you only get about 20 songs....hey use Itunes. Next rip (tons of free programs on the web) the new music CD to MP3 to a seperate folder. Burn the MP3s using Nero or Roxio, etc.

Can be a little time consuming but if you keep up with them it shouldn't be overwhelming. Itunes lets you make a playlist and then burn that playlist to a CD in MP3 format if you want to.

My choice for legal music downloading for sure.....their real country section could use a shot of hillbilly though....a little anemic for sure.

 

Any reply from Napster Quintin?

If you dont hear anything, I might just have to switch to iTunes, since Im still in the free trial period for napster (although it expires in the next few days here).

 

That is something I didn't think of yet. I would prefer not to have to go that route though :\
I'll probably just switch to iTunes. Will it work with mp3 players other than an iPod? Napster would let me transfer straight to the Dell mp3 player I have.

 

Not yet. I got an automated response that it'd take 24-48 hours before I'd hear from someone. Vader's idea would work, but being a Type A personality, I'd go insane copying, ripping, burning, deleting, copying, ripping, burning, deleting...

 

for the record....I couldn't do it either....especially when Itunes does it in one step.

 

aernt all itunes songs in that weird format that you cant convert to mp3 though? I remeber a while back getting some songs off of itunes, then having to burn them and then rip the cd's to get mp3's

mabye I was making it hard on myself....

 

You guys are missing the point of Napster. Every 30 days your mp3 player has to be plugged into your computer of the copyright protection scheme assumes you quit paying for the music and makes the files garbage. CDR cannot be updated like an mp3 player. If you could do what you are trying to do you would actually be undoing what the guys at napster did in the first place. Have a permanent copy of your mp3s you downloaded. If you wanna keep the mp3 permanently from napster you will be paying for the for the rest of your life. Every chance they get Riaa is gonna try to cheat us. LoL....

 

see, I didnt sign up for the fill up your mp3 player thing. I buy either whole albums or one song at a time..

 

Thats actually the way to get them from itunes copyright scheme. Believe it or not you might as well be download off torrentspy or someother p2p software. When you rip them you are breaking the law and ending up with a crapier product than what you started with.

 

They are stored natively on the hard drive in the ITunes format but you can have Itunes burn an MP3 CD for you from your playlists.
