iTunes to transfer onto Creative

Big Nelly

Hi There

Wondering if I will buy a creative or an ipod, have a number of tunes downloaded on my iTunes and was wondering can you transfer onto the Creative or are they gone now? and I cant use unless I buy an Ipod?

If they're mp3 files you can just import them into Creative's software and drop them onto the Creative player. If they're .m4a files, then no, you'll need to convert them first.

Buy a Creative.

Says they are MPEG4 - (protected)

Im fairly sure that iTunes protected stuff (and AAC) only works on an iPod.

They are capable of playing WMA, MP3 and WAV audio files, and with the exception of the Zen Nano, the Zen Nano Plus, the Zen V, Zen V Plus, and Zen Neeon, the players are based on miniature hard disk drives rather than flash memory.

Yeah the protected stuff only works on iPods and is tied to the account.

There's a simple way around it though

Well i'm sure its in breach of the copyrights but burn your bought music to CD in iTunes.

Then import it again in iTunes or whatever creative software. Import them in MP3 format
