Sorry, I have no idea about burning the protected files because most of the services such as I Tunes require some type of charge per tune to burn without the blockage.

Hi Ray and John, Is this really possible to totally drive WMP with jaws: select songs you want to burn and then launch the burning process? Does one need jaws scripts to perform these operations and if so, where can I get them? I'd like to do so in order to be able to burn backup copies of songs I bought sometime ago. The songs are encoded as .wma files with DRM. These DRMs allow me to burn these songs at most three times but how should I burn them? More precisely, since they are protected, WMP is the only software I know, which can extract the audio data contained in them. Does there exist any jaws-friendlier legal alternative to play DRM-protected WMA files or to burn them as raw audio? Many thanks in advance. Have a nice day.
