That's weird.

My version of iTunes - which is just the bog standard version that shipped with the MacBook and gets upgraded from time to time - lets me open AIFF files and then I can just use the 'Convert Selection to MP3' drop down from the Advanced Menu.

At the moment I'm doing some lessons on sight reading for bass and I program a bunch of 'play along' tracks every week - they are all exported as AIFF files and I have no problem converting them to MP3s. So it should work....though loading the AIFFs into Garageband and then exporting them will also work just as well.
