Licence Restrictions

This DRM licence technology is stopping me downloading ANYTHING. What’s the deal with it? At the moment I only have web access from my work PC (I won’t have access to it after the 8th April). Does this mean I can only have the songs for 2 weeks? Can you burn and then copy them onto another PC at a later date or not? Should I just wait for my new home PC?

You can use Windows Media Player to copy them to a cd. It will ask you to save your license. I had no problem with it. I'm enjoying the cd now at work, and I have the files on my computer at home.

So you can't move the licence files from one PC to another (so long as they are only on one PC?)
