microSD storage card.

optional microSD storage card helps you clear up this problem and lets you enjoy more music files.
About DRM, licences, and protected files
Some digital media files, such as songs downloaded from online stores, are encrypted
to prevent the files from being unlawfully distributed or shared. Content providers use
a technology called Windows Media Digital Rights Management (WMDRM), to encrypt
the files. During the encryption process, the content provider creates a licence which
specifies how and when the file can be used.
For example, a content provider could create a licence that allows you to play a certain
file on your computer, but not on your phone. Or, a licence that allows you to play a
certain file on your phone, but only for a month, or perhaps only a certain number of
times. Files that have licences associated with them are called protected files.
