    I guess your right, but it hasent affected any of my MP3s. None of them have a lisence. I have burned them and copied them to other computers with no problem. DRM doesn't affect you if you disable it.

    DRM doesn't affect you if you disable it.
    you can't with wmp9, its there and its against the law to tamper with it or deny it updates, just have a look at preferences, you can't turn it off, you can't even turn off updates
    but if you want to try to fix the drm bug
    http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/4/22354.html or here http://cryptome.org/ms-drm.htm

    you are probably just better off not using it, I rather be safe knowing I don't have it, rather that to have it and not know if its still sending info, and changing headers or anything

    Sure you can disable it. Options> Copy Music> uncheck "Copy Protect Music". It's that simple.

    Why are people so scared of Microsoft?

    it can't be that easy to disable drm
    in fact there building longhorn around drm, so in the future you don't even have the option NOT to have it


    all I know is what I read but isn't this what you see


    WMP does not allow them to change some important settings. Careful reading of the EULA reveals it is actually illegal to prevent the automatic updating. Presumably its part of the renewability system.
