    type it into google, so long as the files are not protected you can play anything on a walkman phone, aac and mp3. I found a programme on google that lets me transfer music and was free for my k750i

  • Oh god, its because you bought them off of iTunes they are encrypted and will not work on anything other than iTunes or iPods. To decrypt it, you'll have to write all the tracks to a CD and then rip them using your Sony software.

    Or buy some fancy software to convert, sorry my previous post is irrelevant seeing as they are protected.

    Burn all the tracks to an audio CD, but record it as an iso file. Mount the iso and rip into mp3/ogg/whatever and you'll get unprotected tracks [:)].

    Or use tunebite. 4x re-recording speed of the protected tracks into a new unprotected file.

    Seeing as iTunes tracks are 128kbps (I think), it's not like you're starting with amazing quality anyway...

    But it doesn't lose much.

    You don't actually think you've <i>bought</i> the music do you?
