HI david.

You do the upgrade on your main computer and then transfer the music yourself to any other computers you have.

The old tracks from what i've read are removed once the new ones have been downloaded.

If i'm wrong, someone will correct me but i read this on the iTunes faq so it must be right.

Thanks so much guys.
But do ye know if this costs on each computer I do this,or does it only cost the first time?
And second, will the "old" ones be removed, or do i have to do so myself?

HI David.

Basically if you want to upgrade your entire library to drm free iTunes plus, visit the main iTunes store page by doing a command shift h or choosing home from the store menu in iTunes. Then navigate to the html area in iTunes and there will be a heading toward the bottom of the iTunes store home page called quick links. One of those links is called upgrade my library. When you choose this link, you will be given a price on how much it will cost to upgrade all the tracks that are available in iTunes plus 256k aac format and you can click the button to download all the new upgraded tracks and albums.

Unfortunately at this time you can't choose which tracks and or albums you wish to upgrade.

It's all or none.

Once all the new drm free tracks are downloaded, the original 128k drm tracks are deleted from your mac seen's you no longer need the older drm encoded music.

Hope this helps.

Hello guys.
Have anyone of you guys found out how one can "upgrade" a file/album that's bought on iTunes from a DRM-protected file or album to an iTunes-Plus (without DRM, and 256kbs)?
Regards David
