I purchased Josh Groban's hit "Noel" at Borders for my spouse, with the intention of downloading it to my computer and transferring it to our IPod. Prior to the completion of the download, a text screen came up informing us that we were not authorized to download five of the approximate 13 tunes. There was no notice of any kind at the Borders store where the CD was purchased nor was there a warning on the CD itself or the wrappng it came in.
