What computer should I use to download my music?
You should download your music to the one computer where you keep your digital music. Once you play a song, it can be played, burned or transferred to a portable player from that computer only, based on the usage rights for that song. |

What happens when I download a song?
When you click the "Download All Songs Now" button to download your entire order, you initiate a process that downloads each song and its license to your computer. The license file contains information that allows Windows Media Player to determine the usage rights associated with a song and to decrypt the song so you can play it, transfer it to a portable device or burn it to a CD.
When you click the "Download Songs Individually" button, you initially download only the song file to your computer. You must then acquire the song license before you can transfer it to a portable device or burn it to a CD.
To obtain the license file, you must first play the song while connected to the Internet. This allows Windows Media Player 9 to retrieve the license, which decrypts the song file and contains information about the usage rights associated with a song.
Once the song starts playing, the license has been downloaded and you no longer need the Internet connection. |

Do I need to adjust the settings of my Windows Media® Player 9?
No, it's easiest if you retain the default settings for Windows Media Player 9. This will ensure that all your music is downloaded to the same folder and will be added to the Media Library that Windows Media Player creates for you, so you can easily find it when you want to listen, burn or transfer music. |

How many times can I download a song?
If for some reason your download is interrupted or a song does not download completely, you may download it again. Each Walmart.com song file can be downloaded to the same computer a total of 3 times. If you exceed the maximum number of downloads, you will need to contact one of our Customer Service.
