Re: Question from Jeannie about MP3 files

I've burned ITunes songs to CD. I haven't tried to put them on my mp3
player (Creative Zen Jukebox, not IPod).

My daughter's iPod nano plays mp3's just fine, but the tunes you
download through iTunes will only play legally on iPod players.

Then why does my itunes have the option to burn to CD? It seems to me
that
if it were illegal to use them through any other medium they would not
allow you to burn the songs you bought and paid for to a CD and/or put
them
in a format that would transfer to another digital music player from that
CD.


Maybe because it's a hassle and most people won't do it?

Maybe because *nobody* would actually use iTunes if you couldn't burn to
CD's with it?

Have you actually done this, because I'm not sure they don't encode the
resulting wav files also.
