I upgraded to WM 11. Now none of my Cd's that were saved on my computer will play. It says I need a license and when I try to get the license, it says tha t the license has been downloade 10times and no more are available.

These are Cd's I purchased at a retail store, some more than 10 years ago. Some of the Cd's, I still have the original, some have been damaged over the years.

I'm going to try uninstall for WM player 11.

Just wanted to let people know what was happening :mad:

I installed it on one of my laptops and haven't had any problems with it yet, but I don't have any DRM protected stuff. Try looking in MS's knowledge base for a fix. And don't rip your CD's to WMA. Then get Winamp or Musicmatch.

I'll wait a while until the bugs are fixed.

By the time all the bugs are fixed, they'll be releasing the next version, which will be full of bugs. :mad:

I ripped all my CD's 900 in all to the hard drive so I can put them on my wife's new I pod. Now they are all locked. I'll have to rip them again to Itunes I guess. What a pain in the ASSSS. Bill Gates Sucks, this really pisses me off. It took months to ripp all those CD's. Bill Gates Sucks!!!!

just installed it and no problems so far.
I'd contact some sort of tech support before starting down the road of re-ripping your entire music collection.

it's a little late now but ya might want to consider Itunes if you're planning on uploading files to an i-pod.

I've started reripping to Itunes 3 days ago 1,200 songs 5.5 gigs so far. About 1/3 of the way through.. I deleted Window media player 11, and all of the windows media player. All files that were a problem I had ripped using wma format. later all the files were labeled *.wma(tm). No problems with bootlegged songs or MP3 formats. Only the songs I bought and paid for, and still have the disc for. I hate bill, he is so worried ablut the dollar and copyright that the enduser pays the price.
