Are the downloadable files in .aac format? If so, can they be converted to mp3's?


Just curious.

Dunno. Never downloaded from iTunes before, so that's another question for me.

You can convert them to mp3, by burning them to a disc, and then ripping it. Lame, but it works.

I should scratch Magic Numbers because I picked it up for cheap on the record store today. I agree it's pretty nice so far.

It's between Ike and Black Mountain, I think.

Yep, Apple's protected format - these will be m4p files, not the unprotected m4a that Itunes rips with.

Not directly. This thread on the dbpowerAMP site tells you how to do it - basically, you strip the protection with the JHymn software and then use dbpowerAMP to convert it to mp3.
