M4P to MP3 advice please

Guys,

I have been given some M4P files that I need to convert to MP3 to listen to. Anyone know how I can do this (cheaply)?

As far as I know, you can export them from iTunes to a cd and then import them from the cd back to your computer as mp3 files?

You will have to set the preferences to Burn as Audio CD and import using MP3 encoder.

Sorry to be pedantic but the export menu item just exports the playlist as a text file.

Itunes for PC is a free download from http://www.apple.com/support/downloa...orwindows.html

Oh don't worry about being pedantic, you never met me on an off day

i don't use itunes or any of that stuff, so I just remembered something about using itunes to burn a disc and then simply ripping it back again.
