Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

So, I bought audionotes for a class from iTunes. The class is done and I want to pass along the audionotes to someone else and delete them from my computer.

Problems: 1) I cannot burn mp3 discs of iTunes files 2) All of the files are too long to burn to a CD.

Any ideas?

Do the files have DRM? If not, just drag & drop them onto a flash drive.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I bought them from the iTunes store, so, yeah, they have DRM

DE, I'm not familiar with audionotes. What are they?

Can you convert the files to mp3 and then burn them? That's how I remove DRM from files so I can put them on a CD.

All of the files are too long to burn to a CD.

What if you split up the files? In the options tab of each file, you can set the start and stop times. Set the stop time at some convenient spot less than 80 minutes in and burn a CD. Then reset the stop time to the end and set the start time to where you left off and burn another CD. And so on.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Hey. New board.

Most iTunes files haven't had DRM for a LONG time. You should check if the filename is m4p (has DRM) or m4a (doesn't).

Woe to the fucking wicked.

They're m4b, audiobooks. Which is basically the same as m4p, which I was able to convert them to.

I couldn't convert them to MP3s. I didn't try splitting the files, but what seems to be working is importing them to iMovie and then exporting the sound. It's not elegant, but it seems to be working.

Does anyone have experience with Overdrive WMA files? Specifically, is there any way to play them on a Mac/iPod, or burn them to a CD?

This is the only format available for children's audiobooks from the Brooklyn library system, but there doesn't seem to be any way for me to use them since we're a Mac household. (There is an Overdrive iPhone app, but it only plays their MP3 files, not WMA.)
