How toplay Napster DRM's on WMP10 mobile?

oldboy · 06-09-05, 12:34 PM

I purchase a lot of my music on Napster and cannot figure out how to get these files to play on my x50v. When I put some drm protected music on a CF card WMP10 finds the file and then connects to the internet to acquire a lisence. Then...nothing. I just get some kind of error message about failing to acquire the lisence. My laptop runs Win2000 so I can't use WMP10 on my computer, so is there a way to get DRM's to play without syncing or burning to a cd and then copying back as nmp3's??

thanks

I assume you have napster software loaded? If so you can go to your purchased tracks and right click transfer to device.

I'm almost sure it won`t help

Jesus, guys! How many times do you have to step on the same rake? All right... Check your PM

If it is a purchased track not a service or to go file it should be fine. I don't think that Napster service files can be transfered or burnt.

Good news! Napster upgraded their client software just this past week and all of a sudden... it now recognizes my X50 as a compatible device and will transfer 'to go' music to it without the $99 per song! Before, I would have to jump through hoops with wmp (which sucks) and that didn't always work. I will say that the napster client isn't without bugs, but just transferred 100 songs to my SD card in my X50 successfully. It took a long time, like an hour. It was painful, but if you are heading to bed, why not sleep through it?
