    When you say you put them on a CD as an audio file do you
    mean that you created an audio CD which would play in a
    regular CD player or did you create a data disk containing
    the purchased iTunes file? I wasn't clear on what type of
    disk you created.

    You can change the type of CD burned in iTunes preferences.
    Once you create an audio CD, re-import the songs at a decent
    compression rate (not too much or the sound quality may
    diminish). Then, try putting those files in your iMovie.
    I think the big clue is that iTunes wants your password, I
    don't think it wants you to use those songs in an iMovie
    (copyright infringement and all that jazz). If you rip the
    files from your audio CD, then you should eliminate iTunes'
    password requirement (I think).
