    Got an audio cd burned. Stupid DRM stuff... I had to
    play the file in Windows Media Player, which then
    acquired the license and embedded the uniqueID license
    into the WMA so media player would play it. I then
    used Roxio to burn the audio cd.

    Annoying. Hopefully I can either convert them now to
    ogg or rip from the audio cd.
