Purchase Songs at iTunes

You must have iTunes installed on your computer (you can download it free by clicking here).

To buy songs at the iTunes Store you'll need to create an iTunes account. To set one up, open iTunes and choose the iTunes Store option in the left-most menu. This will take you to the iTunes Store. At the top right, you'll see a button that says Sign In. Click it. Then click on "Create New Account".

Once you have an account, you can purchase the songs on this website by clicking on the song links found under each juke box. A webpage will open and then close, and your iTunes player will open (if not already open). The iMix (list of songs) will be displayed. Simply click on the "Buy Song" button to purchase that song. The song will download to your computer and be added to your iTunes Library.

If you have an iTunes Gift Card to use for your song purchases, this page will explain how to use it.

iTunes music is in a "protected format". If you want to use the song for a computer project, such as creating a video tribute, you will need to convert it to mp3. To convert to mp3 choose the word 'Purchased' on the lefthand menu. Your list of purchased songs should now be in the main window. Right click on the title of the song you want to convert, and from the menu that opens choose "Creat mp3 Version".

How to use iTunes to create your own music CDs containing songs from your iTunes library.

To make your own music CD you need:

  • A computer that can burn discs, or an external burner.
  • A blank disc.
  • An iTunes playlist containing the music you want on the CD. To create a playlist:
    • Step 1: To create an empty playlist, deselect all songs (click the iTunes window) and choose File > New Playlist, or click the Add button (+) in the bottom-left corner of the iTunes window.
    • Type a name for the playlist.
    • Click Music and then drag each song you want on the CD to the playlist. To select multiple items, hold down the Control or Shift key while you click.
    • To remove an item from a playlist, select it and press the Delete key (this does not remove the item from your library or hard disk).

The number of songs a disc can hold depends on how the songs are encoded. A standard audio CD (650 MB) can hold about 20 songs.

Once you have your playlist completed, insert the blank, recordable CD disc into your computer and click on the "Burn Disc" button found in the bottom, right hand side of iTunes.

Once the CD is burnt, iTunes will read it and show your CD player under devices. You can then import the songs back onto your computer as mp3 if desired.

iTunes has an excellent HELP section that will explain all these steps in detail.
