I am totally flabberghasted and well as completely pissed!!!

I went to burn a CD single this morning so i could take my boombox out when i do the filming of I and my family for this years Christmas song ...

... but the Windows program wouldn't allow me to burn my own song, stating that "windows cannot burn this to Cd" ect ect stating copyright infringement. Copyright infringement? it's my own bloody song!!

I tried it on both PC's at home, (both are only a few years old, one has windows 10), and neither of them would allow mwe to burn the song onto CD.

Help folks!!??!! I'm totally confused!

Osi...what is the format of your original file? If it's a DRM protected .wma file you will have to convert it to an unprotected .mp3 you should then be able to burn it to CD. Don't use Windows to burn the CD. Try a free burner like ImgBurn.

Here's a YouTube video to show you how:
