When I purchase songs from yahoo music engine it wont let me burn a cd. Why?

Question

Didn't I purchase the song?

Answer 1

Did you pay 99 cents per song (or 79 cents if you are a YMU subscriber)? If yes, then you should be able to burn them. That's the whole idea.

If no, then the songs you downloaded were part of the YMU program. As a YMU subscriber you are, in effect, renting the music. You can play it on your PC. If you bought YMU To Go, you can transfer the music to a supported mp3 player. But in neither case do you get to burn them to CD.
