Does this actually burn CDs for you? If I have songs on itunes, can I burn them into CDs?

Hi megan, it does burn CDs for me. To burn songs from within iTunes you'll need to create a playlist, then burn the playlist to cd. You will need two free USB ports to power this device, it does not use a wall plug. It works really great for my laptop and on my desktop. ~david

I just bought my first apple product and talked to the sales person about that very thing. From what I understand you can only use itunes downloads on apple product. However, if you can make CDs from your itune files you can turn around and load them on your computer and put them on an MP3. I have every CD I every bought on my computer and put them all on my MP3. However, I can not recommend buying this product because mine never worked right. I can't turn up the volume enough to hear it well through headphones or speakers. I have bought one of these brand new and they are a good product but this one is reconditioned and it must not have been done right. :/

1. If you download karaoke songs from itunes onto your ipod and then plug it into this system, do the lyrics appear on the screen? I would be wary of CD+G from iTunes, for the simple fact that Karaoke music is comprised of two separate files. IF and only IF you download the music and the data file which is required from iTunes as one (and I doubt it), then you should have no problem. Also, in order to make a CD+G disc to use in the device, you need Karaoke Software like Karaoke Studio which is capable of making discs from the two files. I think most complaints that you'll read where people are saying the lyrics are not showing up are people who are unaware of Karaoke files actually are and what's required. When they burn a disc and press play, the music comes on and the lyrics don't because you have to use specific software. Karaoke is an investment for sure and the Music +G is never cheap. 2. Do all karaoke cds work on this system, and do the lyrics always show up on the screen as well? I've purchased several Karaoke compilations from Amazon and they've all worked so far without problem. As anyone who knows Karaoke will say, it's best to try and master three or four songs and really develop your ability. If you really want to make those songs the way you want it, like adjusting the lyrics as they're sometimes wrong or inserting background pictures, Karaoke software is the next step.

es open your door, put In the CD and once you have your Intunes account set up It open Itunes and ask you "DO YOU WANT TO DOWNLOAD THE DISK" Well If you want the entire CD In your Itunes say yes. IF NOT and want a single or 2 off the cd?Say no , then slide just the tracks you want Into where It says "Music" on the top left on the Itunes page. And you only use space for the tracks you really want In there. Itunes Is VERY user friendly.

I'm not sure what you're asking? If it's to 'burn' an MP3 song onto a CD, I believe you would have to have the proper equipment (ie, from MP3's on your computer to an applicable disc drive. As of itself, this would not happen using this player alone. And, then you would have to have 'bought' the songs on your MP3. Does this answer your question?

Hello, yes it plays regular cd's. You do have to buy a cord to connect to ipod. Great sound for the price.

Not much, I put it on my Ipod and it was like any other playlist. However, when I transferred it - from my computer to ipod, all the tracks had weird blips so I listened to the CDs instead. Not sure if it was my computer (it was old) or the actual CDs as it says you can transfer them no problem. I tried it twice and it always had the same problem. I think you can buy the MP3s directly on the website, so might do that to avoid any frustration with a good transfer. Or go to radio shack for a portable CD player =)

Not True! You don't have to use iTunes. I used to use Winamp with the iPod plug-in. A bonus, Winamp and the plug-in are free! I would recommend iTunes for uploading though, it's easier to use than other programs and will also rip CD's that you own.

No. You have to burn your Itunes songs to a CD, rip them into the Creative Platform and then load them on to the player.

yes it would not import to iTunes - I had to look for songs under recent downloads then drag to iTunes and if your cassette was old and warped it will sound like that warped - and for the price it was not worth but maybe 20 bucks and that is what I sold it for a week after I got it.

Of course it comes with software. How else would it work? It connects to your computer's iTunes application via a USB connection. Then you can burn your vinyl record to CD, if you wish. Which is what it's for. I suppose you could listen to the vinyl record through your computer's speakers, also. I don't know if there are stereos with USB connections, but there must be. I've never looked into it.

iPods can play a variety of different media types, not just material downloaded from itunes. You will have to "rip" your CDs, which will basically copy them to your computer. After that is done, they can be loaded on the iPod. I have a mac, so I can't speak for PCs, but when I insert a CD, itunes gives me the option to import (read: rip) the CD with the click of a button. Importing a CD should take less than 5 minutes. One thing I have done is change the default encoder (itunes preferences -&gt; advanced -&gt; importing tab) from AAC (apple format) to mp3 (which is more common), but that's entirely up to the user. I'd recommend you swing by an apple store, they'll be able to answer any other questions you may have and can probably give you a demo.

hmmm thanks for all the points y'all. this will help a lot of people too. By the way. speaking of FLAC I'm now looking into it. (I'm on the Mac.)How do you get your FLAC files? Do you rip them from CDs? also... I assume that it makes no sense to buy mp3s (lets say on iTunes) and then convert to FLAC as the mp3 is of lesser quality. Therefore to have FLAC files you would have to buy all your music on CD am I correct?if I can only buy iTunes music then hopefully the 256kbps files they sell will do these cans justice.Please enlighten me because having higher quality audio will definitely help my HD595s deliver their best.

Just a caution, the manual says it will not play MP3, WMA, and DivX files. So if you're playing store-bought CDs, no problem, but it won't play your downloaded tunes in those formats.

"I use the itunes store to download FREE video and audio PODCASTS. I dont buy my music from itunes because if something happens to my computer, I'm afraid I'll lose all those tunes I bought."You can back up your songs from iTunes on a disc.

Yes you can copy from your CD's to iTunes and then sync it with your iPod. You could probably find instructions for doing this on the internet or at Apple Support.
