Mine show up as "MPEG audio file". MPEG itself is a standard which
includes a number of tracks, types and formats. MP3 refers to MPEG-2
Audio Layer III started out as the audio track for the original MPEG1
standard. It's a patented format and Apple pays a license fee for use of
the encoder in their products. Lots more info here:

Tim ,
Sorry if I am a fool but does mpeg equal .mp3?

Hi,
The easiest way to import them into a separate list would be to
create a Smart Playlist that add items according to Kind. That is,
when you create the Smart Playlist, create it to match the Kind to be
MPEG. You will still have duplicates in your main Music Library but
the playlists will remain discriminated.
HTH.

Can I import them into a separate list, or will the import be placed
in the music library where I will have ended up with multiple copies
of the same tracks?
Thanks Tim, always generous with your responses.

Hi,
iTunes will not allow the conversion of purchased content to mp3
files, directly anyway. The restriction is due to the DRM encoding
and licensing restrictions. If you wish to use iTunes to do this,
you must first burn an audio CD from your purchased content, then
re-import the tracks. You can choose to import them as mp3 content
via your Import Preferences.

This seems like something other folks might want to know about.
Can you give more details or what you want to do, what you tried
and what went wrong? All my purchases have been in AAC but I was
able to put a couple in a playlist and then burn that list to an
audio CD with no problems. I was also able to use iTunes to
convert the AAC files to MP3 and then burn those to an Audio CD.
So far I can't seem to reproduce an issue with burning playlists.

Listers,
Is there a group for audio buffs on the mac amongst voiceover
users? I need to ask some specific questions with regard to
converting iTunes music tracks I've bought via the iStore into
mp3 so that I can burn them onto a cd rw. It would appear iTunes
won't let me burn any tracks I have bought through the store in
mp3 format.
Feel free to write off-list.
Best wishes
Andrew
