    YASC w/MP3-WMA PCM

    Last week I have received my Slate Grey S Cab w/black interior. I guess that you have seen so many proud owner's car pictures that I'll spare you YASC (yet another S Cabrio).

    The car is really nice. I would have opted for the LSD but the Cab doesn't come with it. After almost 1,000km on the Autobahn and in the city I must confess that I start liking the fact that I can switch. My standard setting is 'Sport' but on long drives the softer mode is quite nice. Both are compromises of course.

    The car came with the MP3/WMA capable PCM and it took me some time to figure out how to convert the AAC files in iTunes to MP3s. If anyone else has issues with it let me know and I post the solution.

    For convert AAC in MP3 you ave to burn before a CD audio.
    After you import in MP3 your songs in iTunes.
    Y don't think another method to cleen the DRM.

    Sorry for my poor English

    It's possible and legal to create MP3 CDs from iTunes even if your library is in AAC format.

    In iTunes for Windows: Select a song or group of songs > Right-click > Convert Selection to MP3.

    In iTunes for Mac: Select a song or group of songs > Advanced > Convert Selection to MP3.

    Burn to CD...Done.

    Re: YASC w/MP3-WMA PCM

    I think he was originally talking about protected AAC files, such as those sold on the iTunes Music Store.

    Unprotected AAC files can indeed be directly converted from AAC to MP3 in iTunes (keep in mind iTunes-encoded MP3 files need a 25% higher bit rate than AAC files to keep the same quality).
    Protected AAC can be burned to CD then reencoded to MP3, but you will waste a pile of CDRs and lose some quality, not to mention risk elbow injury switching disks!
    Or, you can use a specific program to bypass the copy protection (look at my prior post carefully, and google it). :
