[QUOTE=gordo;26576]Probably not, if they can read them, they can copy them. However.... Microsoft's "Windows Rights Management Services" (RMS) is an
option for documents and e-mails produced by Microsoft Office
200* Professional (a pretty "heavy" solution though):

thanks gordo ..but i didn't really understand what should i do .. is that (RMS)
a program for protecting some kind of files from editing , copying and stuff.

Your computer has to download music files to read from them.[/QUOTE]

i wish to allow them to listen but disallow them to copy them..( so i can sell them).

Now you may understand what Sony [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2005_Sony_BMG_CD_copy_protection_scandal[/url]
and the music industry are going through trying to prevent pirating their music. How the artists and companies make their ***** is through music sales, and pirating cuts profits.

thanks gordo for everything.. thanks very much ..
i appreciate it.
greetings.
