[DM-MUG] Burning downloaded TV vieeos to DVD

[Bryan Baker]

Well, with Music you can burn a regular Red Book CD from iTMS and  
then just re-rip from that.
Also, as you say you can back up the files to whatever you want. I'm  
not much for hard lines about things. I do really love what BNL and  
some other artists (mostly from Canada) are doing with their own  
separate download store, which sells choice of formats and is DRM  
free. Best of all the artists are getting more of the money  
themselves - not the labels.
