About the “Music Unlimited” license

You can enjoy “Music Unlimited” by purchasing the “Music Unlimited” license (Basic or Premium) on your computer. The “Music Unlimited” license has an expiry date depending on your contract. This chapter will explain about the license when enjoying “Music Unlimited” on your “WALKMAN.”

Expiry date of your “WALKMAN”

The expiry date for using the “Music Unlimited” function on your “WALKMAN” depends on your plan (Basic or Premium). (This is just the expiry date for using the “Music Unlimited” function on your “WALKMAN,” which is different from the “Music Unlimited” license on your computer.)
Before expiry, you will need to connect your “WALKMAN” to your computer and access the server to update the license. (As the expiry date nears, an alert message will be displayed, alerting you to update the license.)
If the license is expired, you cannot use the “Music Unlimited” function. In this case, connect your “WALKMAN” to your computer and access the server to update the license.
Note
  • If the license expires while listening to a song on “Music Unlimited,” an alert message appears and your “WALKMAN” returns to the Home menu automatically when the current song playback is finished, then the “Music Unlimited” function will not be available.

Expiration date of the “Music Unlimited” license on your computer

When the “Music Unlimited” license on your computer expires all contents of “Music Unlimited” on your “WALKMAN” are deleted, and the “Music Unlimited” function cannot be used when connecting your “WALKMAN” to your computer. (As the expiry date nears, an alert message will be displayed.)

When you reset your “WALKMAN”

The license on your “WALKMAN” will not be deleted if you perform [Reset All Settings].
The license on your “WALKMAN” will be deleted if you perform [Format]. In this case, connect your “WALKMAN” to your computer and transfer the “Music Unlimited” contents to your “WALKMAN.”
