Re: First, I admit I only skimmed the 86 pages of Threads...question about DRM...

Well, I hate to admit that they are mp3, but they are. I'm not trading them. That's not the problem though. They are all mp3s which were ripped from cds containing shn, wav, or cda of FREELY traded shows. All aud recordings. But after the upgrade, which included a clean install of XP pro on my C drive, a large number of these files on my H drive (media drive) came up wrapped in DRM, which asks for permission to search the web for a license, then can't find one. Inside winamp, it results in a nice little bomb that freezes my program. At this point, there are around 600 of these bombs in my library. And it seems to be completely random. A lot of my Phish is affected, some Dead, some PGroove, others. Strangely, very few of my purchased (cds from stores, not downloads) music seems to be affected.
