    I was having this issue with some of my amazon mp3's.  I right clicked and chose convert to mp3's.  That made them transfer on.  I really don't understand it though as other mp3's from amazon transfered on just fine.  Mine was iphone, on xp.  Hope this works for you.

    I fixed mine by going to the add to folder option in itunes. Apparently amazon.com doesn't load them correctly into itunes for you. It was kind of hit and miss afterwards, but I kept trying all the copies of the songs and eventually found a copy of each song that could correctly transfer to the ipod.
