This firmware upgrade will allow all versions of hardware and firmware from the above model numbers of Lyra? Players to playback contents purchased from most online music download services.
After you purchase and download "Secure" Windows Media? Audio(WMA) content, known as Digital Rights Management (DRM) content from online music services that offer DRM WMA purchases, this upgrade will allow you to transfer and play them on these devices.
You will need to use Windows Media Player 9.0 or the application recommended by the online music download service to transfer DRM WMA to your Lyra device.
