Gotcha. Just as a general FYI, the .m4p format is the "protected" version of .m4a, which is the AAC format on Windows. (Why Windows gets .m4a as a suffix when that same format over on a Mac is .aac, I couldn't tell you.) The "protected" bit is because you've downloaded those files off a paid music store.
The new MSN music store does the same thing, I've discovered, with a "protected" version of the Microsoft format .wma. I downloaded a few free songs off the MSN store, and I can't load those into iTunes. So this thing works both ways.
