Hello sneek7,

You can use iTunes to convert a song to an MP3 version following the steps in the article below:

iTunes: How to convert a song to a different file format

One thing to keep in mind is that you will still have the original version of the song in iTunes as well as the MP3 version, so when you are syncing with your new device, be sure you are selecting the MP3 version to sync.

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Best,

Sheila M.
