Hi all,

Tonight i just booted up my pc to listen to some music, but every song on my hard-drive is unplayable thanks to Microsoft. Every song from 8gigs worth somehow needs a licence. How can this be? Most of the music I have is froms cd's I pruchased in the past or, has been purchased *cough* legally from the web. That i can recolect, maybe 10 of these tracks that I got from mycokemusic.ie had licences.

Has anyone had the same problem?
Can someone help me?

Thanks in advance
Neuro
