MP3 Players
Hi, I am trying to download files into my MP3 Player and it says it can not because the files are right protected. Can you help me out? How do I unprotect the files? Please let me know if you need more information. Thanks, Patricia

Sounds like your MP3 player is write protected. Check the manual, there may be a switch to unlock it.

You're downloading Copyright Protected files, I don't think they can be changed. Download files that aren't Copyright Protected. This is a good solution and it's legal.

If you are using a P2P software, I suggest to use Ares Lite P2P Software. It's free if you download the right one.

There are very few legal music files on the P2P network please don't suggest that. Non-DRM music files can be had at many sites including the independant artists' site.

That's pirating. You will be open to prosecution for copyright infringement.

It is only pirating if you are downloading Copyright Protected content.

Wrong. The money you are paying for "Pro" is not royalty or licensing fees.
LimeWire - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

WikiAnswers - Is downloading songs from Limewire illegal or legal

Correct and that's 98% of the P2P's content.
