music store list gone. what now?

[stms]

i am a victim of the new firmware for the a900, so they replaced my phone. now when i go to the music store, my list is wiped out? the downloads that i did are gone. can i get them back? ive read somewhere, where i can access the site and download them to pc, but not the other way.

You have to download them here:
http://musicstore.sprint.com/pcdownload/login.cgi

They are digitally protected AND in WMA format. How much worse can it get? You'd have to strip the DRM before converting them to M4A or MP3.

is there no way to download them from the store to my phone again? ive checked the site (btw should be on a sticky, if not) i only the the option for a pc download =( this sucks

I'm afraid so. Same thing happened to me with one of the first updates, but it actually gave me another 5 free downloads at that time. Actually, let's do a test. If you can PM me your email address, I will email you a KOZ file. I want to see if you'll be able to play it on your phone. You're not supposed to be able to, but I'd just like to see. I would just test with my own phones, but I only have my 900 with me today.

pm sent.

wouldnt this be a problem in the future, if you had bought alot of music from the sprint music store and then, choose to upgrade your phone. are you just SOL then?
