How to Send a GarageBand Session to iTunes

GarageBand and iTunes provide a powerful combination for the recording musician. Once you've recorded and mixed a song in GarageBand, you can quickly and easily send the song to iTunes. iTunes enables you to listen to the song in a regular stereo mix, as well as burn the song to a CD or convert it into a MP3 that can be emailed to other musicians or fans.
