I didn't format my 8 gig card from the ebay seller referenced earlier in this thread, as everything else works fine. It's just the Sprint Music Store that is out. The Sprint Music Store downloads the music as .koz files, which can only be played with the Sprint Music Store Player (as far as I know).

So, I downloaded all of my purchased music to my PC as .wma files, which play fine on my PC after I download the license, but won't play on my phone because they are protected files! I tried Freeme4WM and other programs that are suppossed to assist me in playing these files on my phone, but alas, I was unsuccessful. Something about WM being version 11.0.6000.700. I guess I have to wait until someone resolves that issue, as well.

Regardless, Sprint reimbursed my account for the songs, so I'll just purchase them again elsewhere. Speaking of which, does anyone recommend a good website to purchase music that I can actually play on my phone? Napster 2 Go any good? Finally, any easy way to play itunes music on the phone? Although not the subject of this thread, if Joe encounters the same issues I did, then this is where he'll end up as well.

Players are a dime a dozen. Since you're asking for help, my personal favorite (because of the alarm feature) is MortPlayer, and it's free.
Here's a link to the cab file for mortplayer 3.31 b69 (RC8.1) which is the latest version.

Or you can try getting the latest HTC Home and using HTC Audio Manager which looks a lot like the iPod menus.

Do what I do. Sign up for a subscription service of your choice, and then purchase MuvAudio (http://www.muvaudio.com) . It will re-record protected WMA-DRM file as a unprotected MP3 file.
Best thing I ever did was sign up for Yahoo Unlimited at $60/year and buy MuvAudio for $18.
Total of $78 and I've downloaded over 8000 songs.
Yahoo Unlimited is going away and will be taken over by Rhapsody. New price will be $13/month. I'm splitting the cost with a friend, and we'll be taking advantage of my fiber optics 15mb download speeds.

What has your experience been like with the quality of the MP3s produced by MuvAudio? Any noticeable quality loss? I'm not a huge audiophile, but also don't want to listen to crap. I've avoided subsciption services in the past mainly because my wife is a Mac/iPod girl and I'm a Windows/PPC guy, and I've never seen a service that will work with both copy protection systems. In theory I like the subscription service idea. Fast downloads, accurate song info, album art, etc. This could be the perfect solution.
