Hi Marlaina, I'm not sure what the situation was like a couple years ago, but I think iTunes always allowed people to burn their music onto a CD, if maybe only a limited number of times. However, as of January 2009, iTunes removed drm protection from all of the music that they sell. You can burn your Music to CD, transfer it to any computer or portable player that you have, or convert it from the original m4a format to mp3. There is no longer any restriction. See this article for more info.

He said he thinks it is protected music. I don't want to buy it if I can't burn it for conventional use.
