Dale there is a tick box in windows media players Options/Rip tab as shown in my attachment.
This is printed in media player help files:

What happens if I decide to copy protect music that I rip?
If you copy protect the tracks that you rip from a CD, then you will need media usage rights to play, burn, or sync the ripped files. If you copy the files to another computer and try to use them, you might be prompted to download media usage rights for that computer. You can download media usage rights for ripped files only a limited number of times.
If you intend to use your ripped music on multiple computers, don't copy protect the files. If you want to limit the distribution of any songs that you rip, turn on copy protection before ripping. You can't remove copy protection from a file once it has been applied. Copy protection is available only when you rip music to the Windows Media Audio (WMA) format.
