Your downloaded music is in Apple's AAC(m4a) format and Windows Movie Maker does not accept this format. You can convert it to mp3 in iTunes.


Itunes menu, EDIT/PREFERENCES, GENERAL tab. Go in IMPORT SETTINGS, under IMPORT USING, you have various Encoder, AAC. AIFF, APPLE LOSSLESS, MP3 and WAV. Select MP3 encoder, then OK and OK.

Right mouse click the song(s) in music library will give you a Menu which includes CREATE MP3 version.
