It sounds like wherever you got the files encoded them in such a way as to have them requring a license. I had a problem with trying to bring wma files from one PC to another. I think there are ways around the problem though, just I don’t know what they are.

lol....try re-downloading it but from a diffrent source the one you downloaded was already flagged thats why it cant acquire a license, they already know that media file is pirated try to stick with mpg or m-peg or m-peg4, avi, and other things like that that doesn’t associate with microsoft

i had this issue, open the file in Media Player, and it will acquire licence, you also need to make sure it opens in IE, get the licence, back it up and replay song in Winamp, and WALLAH!
