Can songs be extracted from itunes into mp3 format? like the songs you buy on itunes

Can you please explain more of what your asking or am I just not to answer this, I might know for i use it for my ipod.

well
for instance, you BUY a song from the itunes music store- lagniappe (a cd released by saddle creek) was only released on itunes, so i want to extract the file- its in mp4 format.


the format says


(mpeg 4 protected)

no you cant the thing with Itunes its mp3 player only. the new Ipods will only work with Itunes. the new nano wont work with windows media player

Ice is correct.

i wasn't refering to ipods, just itunes


anyways i figured it out, if you want to extract a song, burn a bunch of downloaded songs onto a cd, and then take them to another comp and load it up with windows media- and rip them and it comes out as mp3

You can save some time and a CD by using iRevolt.

I would suggest http://www.hymn-project.org/ ,,, JHYMN or HYMN (earlier version) work great. With original Hymn, you can drag and drop your itunes aac to the executable hymn and it simply converts (a new copy) to mp3. Wonderful and fast. Good luck
