Moving or Copying Files

Jul 13, 2004 6:30AM PDT

How can I move or copy downloaded music from iTUNES to MUSIC MATCH. I have tried and have been unsuccessful. I much prefer the MUSIC MATCH player to any other. I have written to iTUNES and they haven't even answered. Guess they don't want anything moved from their application.
Thanks for your help
Regards,
Gordon

It's not done in any easy manner. What some do is download and install software like FREECORDER to re-record the tune in MP3 or other so that MusicMatch can use it.

iTunes has some encoding that locks up the music.
