Default More PC music problems! - 08-19-2004, 11:45 AM

Ok I rip my music to my PC, but then it says I need to redownload the licenes to play my files. I got them all pretty much from Buy Music, and they are WMA files. I have XP pro, and is there any way I can rip them and be able to listen to them without the CD, and even when I have the CD now it won't let me play em. How can I get around this?

If you didn't back-up your licenses you might be up shit creek. Have you checked over at BuyMusic.com to see if there's any help there?

On a previous thread you said that you were copying you music from your old PC to your new one. Is your old PC still on the go?
