Adding Audio

[Leslie]

Hello! I am making my first movie, and everything was going wonderful until
it was time to add the background music. I am trying to use a song off
iTunes and cannot get the software to import it. I tried burning it to a CD
and importing it that way, but no luck. Can someone help me with this?
Thank you for your time!

===================================
After burning the CD...did you use Windows
Media Player to RIP the CD with .wma as the
target format? (.wma is compatible with Movie
Maker)

Also...have a look at the following article:

And also, did you burn your CD as an audio CD? or data CD?

For this to work as John mentions, you must burn your CD as an audio CD.

I thought I burned it as an audio. Music is half the fun of the video, and
as I read it appears to be a challenge for many. Thank you for your ideas
and for sharing possible solutions!
