Copyright and Copyright Protection Feature (DRM)
By the Copyright Act, any voice/music files and music CDs downloaded from the Internet without
the copyright holder’s permission may not be reproduced, distributed, publicized/re-publicized
on the Internet, or converted into WMA or MP3 files for the purpose of commercial business or
sale.
A WMA file may be provided with DRM (Digital Right Management) for copyright protection.
DRM limits the file to copy or distribute music files that are converted (ripped) from a music CD
or downloaded from music distribution services. To transfer a WMA file with DRM to the recorder,
you need to use appropriate methods such as Windows Media Player. Copying the music files
with DRM purchased from online music distribution service to a portable device such as this
recorder may be restricted.
