Utilizing Napster songs in my video projects

I have purchased several songs from the Napster site that I wanted to use in my home video projects. However, these songs are copy-protected and will not allow me to add them to my project. Is there anyway to get these songs into my project??

Thanks in advance

From what i understand what you would have to do is burn the songs onto a cd (rewritable is my choice) the re import (rip) to your pc as preffably a .wav then you should be able to import to your project. I have never done this so i may be wrong

Right!

The Napster downloads are DRM (Digital Rights Managment) protected. But, you are allowed to burn then to CD (something like five times?). However, the audio-CD copies are not copy protected!

If you wan't to "insure" your investment, it would be a good idea to archive all of your Napster (and iTunes) purchases to CD.

Can I burn the songs back to my computer as a WAV file with MusicMatch?

Thanks
