Adam Posted July 31, 2005 Report Share Posted July 31, 2005 Few questions for you IT epxperts: 1. itunes only seems to downolad at 128kbps whereas I rip all my CDs at 320 - can I chnage this setting i itunes or are there other buy-online music sites whoch operate at better quality 2. itunes downloads seem to be in m4p format - will this prevent me from burning to a CD-R and playing in stereo/car? If so how do convert this into mp3? 3. if I want to buy a whole album from itunes how do I select more than one song? I currently have to buy them one at a time which is a pain. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DHA Posted July 31, 2005 Report Share Posted July 31, 2005 1. Not sure the answer to that one Adam but will look into it. 2. Downloaded songs can be burnt 7 times as a CD track but cannot be converted into MP3 format, if you try it will say you do not have permission to do this. I am sure there is a way around this but I haven't looked/tried yet. 3. Click on the arrow in the circle next to the album track and you can then select buy album. It should be £7.99 4. I might be coming back to the Porsche brand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It cant be ideal to be constantly resampling though, so would be better to buy in the format you want in the firstplace or buy a lossless format to use as a master.

DHA Posted August 1, 2005 Report Share Posted August 1, 2005 Never tried to import from a CD once I have burnt to it. However iTunes will recognise the track names if you put a CD you have burnt back into your computer so it must put an id tag on it somewhere.

beez Posted August 1, 2005 Report Share Posted August 1, 2005 You can stick them back on your computer as MP3s once you've burn your MP4s to CD. I find doing it with Windows Media Player gets the job done - then you can convert those files to MP3 in iTunes. Didn't do a lot to the quality of my tracks really.

Adam Posted August 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 cheers Dave, APR and Beez its a bit shite having to pay for a CD download and having it at such ropey quality if I burn an m4p track to a CD will it play in my stereo / car in the same way an mp3 track will? I know its only 50p for a blank one but that's what TSN is for! trouble was I was getting my 30 free downloads at the time so got nervous when it threatened to hit my credit card and now I want to download the editors album but not the 6 bonus tracks but of course I woudl "buy" the whole lot you have PM re.

DHA Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 When you burn the m4p track I think it can only burn it as a CD audio track and not as an mp3 track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
