Burn the playlist to a CD. Then delete the tracks and re-import the CD. The resulting tracks will be free of DRM, but will be lower in quality than the originals, since you're putting them through a lossy codec to re-import thm. Whether or not the difference in quality is acceptable or even noticeable is a personal matter. I find it acceptable for mobile listening, not so when listening on a decent pair of speakers. Then again, I feel the same way about the original iTunes files. YMMV. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
