You can also turn off DRM in Windows Media Player as well.

Look under the Tools -> Options menu then click on the Copy Music tab. Uncheck the Copy Protect Music box and there you go.

Yeah, I realize that. I am sure that there are hurdles to go though to convert music with DRM to mp3s. I was just saying that I didn't need to address this.

Ah, I see, you already have WMA files with DRM attached wink

I remember forgetting to turn this off after my last reformat and reinstall and had to rip a few CD's again laugh
