Can a Download From iTunes Play on My Portable MP3 Player?

Today I played around with media formats. Apple’s iTunes web site has a huge library of downloadable music and podcasts. ALL will play on my PC using the iTunes software. However, I knew that not all would play on my new (non-Apple) Olympus MP3 player. I discovered that most of the iTunes music (99 cents each) is in the AAC or m4a format and will not play on my player. Is it possible to convert these to MP3? If you know of a way, I’d be interested. Most of the iTunes podcasts are free. Many of them are already in the MP3 format so they will play on my player. Some of the AAC formatted podcasts can be converted to MP3 by right-clicking on the file. Other AAC podcasts are protected and can’t be converted. Anyway … I was happy to discover that a good share of the iTunes podcasts could be played on my new player.
