Yes , that is how it ' s designed . Media you bought on iTunes can be copied back , but other musicmovies in your library can not . Ostensibly this was done at the behest of the RIAAMPAA as an antipiracy measure , thought it obviously benefits Apple as well . There are tons of 3 rd party apps to copy the contents back to your computer . If you go down that route , be smart about it so you don ' t instal malware . <| sep |> mmmm so damn sexy <| sep |> Valk 3 all the way . Source own both . <| sep |> Urgh , I ' d been assured that the frequency was almost guaranteed once you hit 120 . Glad to know that isn ' t the case do I can plan accordingly . <| sep |> You grew up in an era of incredible music . My all time favorite is from a little bit later , but Carole King is probably my favorite artist of all time . I grew up on it all , though . My mom went on tour with the Dead one summer and partied wJerry Garcia so she wasis a huge hippie but was very into music . I like older stuff ranging from Gary Lewis and the Playboys to Joni Mitchell , from The Beatles to Pink Floyd , etc . etc . 19942007 or so is the time bracket I identify musically the most with , but I adore 1960 ' s 1970 ' s music . Live in NY and devastated I couldn ' t afford to see Carole King ' s show . Most my age never heard of her in my experiences . Most underrated music person ever . I digress , though . Only artist I can honestly say I adore tens of songs of are The Beatles and Billy Joel . The Beatles are top top . Did you ever get to see them in concert ? I saw McCartney at the final concert at Shea Stadium NY Mets old stadium . He was a surprise and his plane was late so he got cop escorted from JFK and ran out of car right onto stage Billy Joel concert , oddly . Seeing him was a top experience in my life .
