On the issue of portability of music purchased from the iTunes Store, reader Hanno zur Loye writes in:</p>

I read the article by Christopher Breen (“How to deal with two Apple IDs, well, kind of (http://www.macworld.com/article/2879576/how-to-deal-with-two-apple-ids.html)”) and I was hopeful and confused at this statement of “…if we’re talking only about music you’ve purchased from the iTunes Store in the last several years, that’s not a problem as music is no longer protected and can be played with either ID.”</p><p>
I just realized that due to a change in email addresses, I have two Apple IDs and have purchased music on both and apps only on the later one, since that came with the iPhone that runs on the new email address. I just tried to listen to purchased music and it won’t let me play it unless I sign in on the Apple ID that purchased it. So it seems that the music is protected? Or am I doing something wrong.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2999926/streaming-media/how-to-consolidate-locked-itunes-music-linked-to-multiple-accounts.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
