Music licenses

Ok. I have lost the ability to play some of the mp3's that I have aquired. I get a: "Windows Media Player cannot play, synchronize, or burn a protected file because an error occurred while verifying the license." error. Anyone know a way around this??

Buy the CD?

Seriously, I don't know a thing about MP3 stuff. Could there be a time stamp on it?

Buy your music from Apple. I have never had a problem burning discs of the songs they have sent to me.

The only time you have issues with licensing is when you download from a paid source that is working with the music industry. They in turn license the material appropriately to assist the music from being used illegally.

I'm sure you can find a song or 2 from an alternative source.
