You can select the songs in iTunes and have it create mp3 versions. Select then right click, select create mp3. Then just copy to your phone.

There are programs on the internet you can use to do this they cost around $40. Since you only have 1 album to convert you can just burn the songs onto a blank CD and then re-load them to iTunes as MP3 files off of the CD. The downside to this method is then you'll have to type in the name, artist, and album info for each song. I recently did this for a couple hundred songs when I switched from an iPhone to a Droid. It was a major hassle for that many songs and I should have just bought some software. If it was just one album it should be no problem.

I found out that the player program didn't work. there was a converter program that had a trial version that transfered the first 3min of each song. The good news was it was a Dropkick album so none of the songs were 3min!!! This did work. the CD burning sounds like a good idea too.

I tried this and didn't seem to do the trick. Don't know if I did it wrong, but I couldn't get it to work on the phone.


Just another reason i hate Apple!!!

You can't do this with protected MP4's only unprotected ones. When iTunes first opened up they were selling only protected MP4 files to quell the anti-piracy histerics going on in the record industry after the whole Napster thing. Later everyone relaxed and now they sell unprotected MP4's. When Apple made the change you could convert your protected files to unprotected ones for a discounted rate.

Ah, forgot about this. You could always burn the tracks to a cd, then use any program to rip to mp3.
