Hey all,

I just got the OEM mp3 stereo for my 8 and I've been playing around with burning my songs on a cd. I have iTunes so many of my songs are in AAC format (not supported by the stereo). When I try to burn my songs to a cd using iTunes, it converts the songs to mp3 format but it burns the albums to the same playlist so I can't browse by album in the car. Any idea on how to seperate the albums?

 

I'm not familiar with iTunes, but what about using the burning program that your CD-R came with (likely either Nero or EZ CD Creator)? Easy to drag-and-drop in those programs. Hope that's not too off base.

 

Hey Jim,

How are you burning MP3's with itunes? I am having trouble converting the AAC's into MP3's.

iTunes will rip MP3 format, and burn MP3 disks from MP3 files, but it seems it wont allow an AAC file to be burned to a disk as a MP3. Am I missing something?

 

OK... I played with it a bit and found I can manualy convert non protected AAc's into mp3 format. It keeps the original AAC, so you now have two copies of the same song in the library.

 

yeah, you have a few options with that. the AAC files are higher quality so after i get the 2nd copy of the song in mp3 format, i burn it then just delete all the mp3 files. Still having some trouble getting it to burn into seperate playlists though...
