The problem is with the media player burner - I use Nero 6.6.0.1 to burn and
it burns DRM protected content from a non msn site fine, however I cannot
burn songs downloaded by media player or off a msn website, media player
seems to lock the licences allowing only itself to burn these songs. An easy
solution is to go to a file sharing site and download unprotected songs, but
I'd like to find a legal solution if possible!
