iTunes Question

[Greenlizard0]

When installed onto a users computer, is the only music allowed to be purchased and downloaded from the iTunes website? Or does it allow you to specify your own target (legal or illegal)?

This is a sort of work related question that we're all yapping about atm so if anybody who has this could answer the question that'd be cool

Any music you have on your PC can be used with iTunes.

You just have to create a playlist and drag it across.

Yep, if iTunes could only play stuff bought from the music store nobody would ever use the program or the music store. It'll play MP3, AAC, Apple Lossless, AIFF, and Wav. It'll convert non-protected WMA to any of the formats above.

Ok apart from music already held offline, is the iTunes store the only other place that can be used to get music?

itunes can only access music stored on a hard drive,this can be network drive so theoretically you could network a server's drive/folder (I'm using a nas for storage of tunes in mp3 format). It can only buy music from itunes store.

if you were to download (non copyrighted, obviously) mp3s from torrents or limewire or anything else, iTunes will play them, as long as they're on your computer or something connected to your computer.

iTunes will be able to play MP3s from the rainforest type store once they open it in the UK
