Work around for iTunes music?

Save a CD. Import your itunes music into iMovie (of all applications) and use >export >quicktime (AIFF) - then just import to final cut pro.
 
Little bit faster way... open up iMovie and import the music onto the iMovie timeline and render out using their advanced options. You can just render out a AIFF file and drop it into FCP with no problem.

EDIT*
Ah...bretweeks, didn't see ur post. My bad!
 
I tried that Geoff and when I went to render and export a message came up saying my music was copy protected and it wouldn't let me do anything with it within iMovie.

Now BenB, I saw your example for using a CD but what if you want to import music from your iTunes library. Right now I usually have to put those on a CD-R and burn them then drag them back to my desktop from the CD. When I slide them off, they are already AIFF files and I put them right into FCP to edit with.
