DRM (Digital Rights Management) is a generic term for technology that prevents you from playing music files on unauthorized players or giving them away to others. Such files are tied to your iPod and iTunes and cannot be easily transferred elsewhere. If you want to be able to use the music on a portable media player other than an iPod, or if you want to burn the files to a CD, it is recommended that you do not purchase copies with DRM technology.
