DRM

LoadIt uses Digital Rights Management (DRM), a secure media protection that  guards digital content from illegal use. DRM encrypts each digital media file so that only those people who have legally acquired a proper licence can play the file.

This licence is downloaded to your computer automatically when you purchase and download music from LoadIt.

Digital Rights Management

What do DRM, protected files & media usage rights mean?
DRM is a technology used by content providers, such as online stores, to control how the digital media files you obtain from them are used and distributed. A file that is protected with DRM requires media usage rights to be delivered with the file. The media usage rights define how the protected file can be used. For example, a right may give you the permission to play the file on your computer (a play right), burn the file to an audio CD (a burn right), or sync the file to a portable device (a sync right). Each right can have certain qualities, such as the following:

*The right to play a file on your PC an unlimited number of times
*The right to sync a file to a Secure Portable Device
*The right to burn to an Audio CD
