I found some would not play in hoster as fill in music as hoster did not recognize the encryption. The next problem was when you change your computer you have to renew these licenses which I had problems with. At that time they were charging about .75 English pence a track which wasn't too bad until I changed my computers mother board and found half of them would no longer play. So from now on I always buy the CD and I have no worries with the license and always have a hard copy.

i've been downloading music from itunes for years now ( 4,672 songs to date) at .99 cents ea. and they are protected (aac ) and you are allowed to have your " purchased " itunes on 5 computers, i have 8 computers now 4 laptops( 1 mini laptop ) and 4 workstation pc's the way around it is to burn the protected songs as mp3, my reason for these was some of my dj software wont play aac's..
