To load music on your phone, you need to have a digital
music library on your computer. You can purchase
DRM-protected music files from supported online music
stores or copy music from your personal CD collection.
To copy an audio CD on your computer:
1
Insert the audio CD in your computer’s CD drive.
2
Launch your computer’s media player program (such
as Windows Media Player 11, which you can
download from http://www.microsoft.com/windows/
windowsmedia/default.mspx).
3
Copy the music CD to the media player library (also
called ripping the CD).
Note: Make sure to change the format to MP3 or
WMA in the Rip Settings. (MP3 is the recommended
format for best performance.)
Next, transfer the songs from your computer to your
phone or memory card.
