Burning MP3's to CD from AAC files

RayLee · May 17, 2006

My iTunes is all AAC but would like to burn MP3 files to CD for the car, can this be done or do I need to covert my library to MP3?

thanks
Ray

You will need to convert them. If they are iTMS downloaded files, you may not be able to convert them though.

do you want to create audio cd's for your car or mp3 data file cd for your car? itunes should just burn them as an audio disk.

thanks again, it would be nice to be able to burn MP3 disks for the car (we could have hundreds of songs an a disk vs. 12 or so via an audio disk) really wish I would have copied my 400ish disks as MP3 vs. AAC in I tunes.

Yup. Make sure your Import format is set to MP3 from now on so that it imports your cd's as MP3's, that way you can burn them off and get a whole disk full of songs. For now though, you'll either have to delete them and reimport them, or do like I said in the PM to get your AAC files converted.
