A note on the previous post about backuping itunes playlists in their mp3 format. Instead of using that program, if its a small playlist, you can simply drag the songs from itunes onto the desktop or folder, and itunes will autocopy the files over. Apparently, this does not work for large playlists, the author said >1000, mine worked for about 300, so it shouldnt be much of an issue.
