I found a way to convert iPod libray song and write it to documents directory, using

From iPod Library to PCM Samples in Far Fewer Steps Than Were Previously Necessary

Thanks Mats Stijlaart for your help. But I got the solution for this.

Hope this helps everyone.

I do not think this is allowed. This will make it more easy to copy file bought in iTunes, so i do not think apple will allow that.

When you pick music from your music library, you will have to use a MPMediaPickerController with the following delegate method:

- (void) mediaPicker: (MPMediaPickerController *) mediaPicker didPickMediaItems: (MPMediaItemCollection *) mediaItemCollection

MPMediaItemCollection is some kind of list. It's items are instances of the MPConcreteMediaItem class. The MPMusicPlayerController can play a MPMediaItemCollection, but with MPConcreteMediaItems but you can not do anything.
