Can I transfer downloaded programmes on to a blank DVD or CD to play in my DVD player?

It is not possible to copy a downloaded programme onto a disc to play in a stand-alone DVD player because the programme is DRM protected. However, you can transfer Windows Media Player downloads to a disc to use in another computer as long as it is within the time period and the computer is in the UK and can connect to the internet to acquire a licence.
