Question by Dad: Itunes: I thought what I bought is mine, but I guess I had thought wrong? See details for question:?
So, I have spent more than $ 100 on Itunes Video, and tonight after reformatting my Computer HD ( Hard Drive) and restoring my Itunes music files back to the computer, Itunes is telling me I am not authorized to play these music videos on this computer. Excuse me? Maybe I should have read their License Agreement before purchasing from them, but who really wants to read all of that? I mean, I would need to spend a whole day reading their License Agreement page, and I just didn’t think Itunes would tell me what to do with contents I bought from them with “my money”

So, here I am now all stuck with more than $ 500 worth of Music Videos and cannot play them, because I have already authorized 5 computers, which is the limit to play contents purchased off Itunes.com.

The thing is, all of those 5 computers that were authorized were thrown out of the house, as they either became defective or unwanted.

This is crazy.

How can I get my Music Video to play on my computer legally?

Dad 🙁
