Can I convert iTunes files to burnable CD files?

[glen]

Only on the CD, or can I "burn" it to a hard drive?

Wait... what?

I know how to burn an iTunes song to a CD.
This converts it to a wav file or something that a CD player can read.
I was wondering if it were possible to convert to that format, but merely toa drive, rather than a CD-R.

you mean wav files? those are just decompressed audio files. err... ur joking?i can't tell
just tell it to burn a cd. i don't see the point of decompressing aac files to wav on the hd. u can always rip the burned cds to the hd if u wnat that...dunno why. its all limited to the quality of the mp3/aac files they came from

long ago when i still burned cds i sometimes used winamps discwriter output plugin to turn mp3s into wav files course this was long before nero even had mp3 functionality... long long long ago.

Yes, you can, but it's illegal.

Itunes' files are DRM'ed.

Illegal to convert them?
or illegal to convert them and distribute them?

TO a CD-R yes.
Can I just convert them to wav or what ever to a hard drive?
Do I ahev to burn to a CD-R and then transfer it back to the HD?
