Advice please! I copied purchased ITunes songs onto a cd, but my Cd player (6 disk But I don't know if relevant) will not recognise the disk . It could be the file format, can anyone tell me what I need to do

Seem to recall this is an issue, the security encoding on i-Tunes purchases limits how you can share. A legal i-Tunes purchase is not a simple mp3 (I've just checked in my I-tunes library a song I know was a legal download is a "security coded AAC format" where another one that I know was loaded from a legal CD shows as "mp3". I think the AAC coded files have sharing that is somehow limited to Apple equipment.

So you can play your I-tunes songs through an i-pod into another system (e.g. i pod in car) but you can't take the file out of an i-pod / i-tunes and re-locate the file e.g. burning to a CD.
