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.
