By doing these simple two steps, all the files in the iTunes library will be saved in the “Media” folder. You can then go to the Media folder and move all the songs to your USB stick.
Open Computer, click Music on the left and open the iTunes folder on the right. From here you will see a folder named "iTunes Media". Open it and you will find the Music folder. All your songs are saved here. You can easily copy the contents of that folder and paste it on the stick.
