Of course there is. You can do it 2 ways. You can find the playlist in iTunes
and just choose to export it. Or, you could go to your music folder, iTunes,
iTunes media, music, and then find the play list, and copy it to the thumb
drive. HTH

With most current Drop box links, when you click on the link, a special page
