Why are some my song titles in "My Music" in blue and some in black? What does this mean?

This happens on Windows XP and probably on Windows Vista.


It means that some of your music is compressed/encrypted. The black ones are the normal ones, and the blue ones are the compressed/encrypted ones. To change this:


1. Right click on the file(s).


2. Select Advanced... at the bottom of the dialog.


3. Untick the check boxes 'Compress contents...' and 'Encrypt contents...'


4. Click OK twice. Then you're done. (The last one will take a bit longer.)
