If a separate agreement provided by us or an Affiliate governs a particular Transaction (as defined in Section 9 below) or Product, or your use of a particular Product, and the terms of such separate agreement conflict with the terms of this Agreement, the terms of such separate agreement will govern such transaction or use.
Subject to your compliance with the conditions of these Terms, and any other applicable terms and conditions imposed by us, our Affiliates, and/or our licensors, you have a limited right to use those Products that you purchase or access through the Site solely for your personal, noncommercial use, in accordance with the terms and conditions of these Terms and any other terms and conditions that may apply to such Products, which right you cannot sublicense to others.
Any burning or exporting capabilities, if any, of any Product shall not constitute a grant or waiver of any of our rights, or those of any copyright or other rights owners in such Product, any other Product, or any content, sound recording, underlying musical composition, artwork, or other copyrightable matter embodied in or associated with such Product or any other Product. You understand that the Site and the Products may include and/or rely on a security framework using technology that protects digital information and imposes usage rules established by us, our Affiliates, and our (or their) licensors, and you hereby agree to abide by such usage rules, including those set forth below.
Unless we expressly provide otherwise, all Transactions, all Products, and ultimately your use of such Products are subject to these Terms.
VIII. PURCHASES
If you wish to purchase any Products made available through the Site (each such purchase, a “Transaction”), you may be asked to supply certain information in connection with such Transaction, including—without limitation—your credit card number or other payment account number (for example, your wireless account number), your billing address, and your shipping information. By initiating a transaction, you represent and warrant that you (A) are eighteen (18) years of age or older, and (B) have the legal right to use the form and method of payment selected by you.

Except to the extent applicable law provides otherwise, all sales through the Site are final, and all charges from those sales are nonrefundable, except as otherwise expressly set forth in these Terms.
XI. PRODUCT DELIVERY
Except to the extent prohibited by applicable law, we reserve the right to change Product delivery options without notice. On occasion, technical and other problems may delay or prevent delivery of a particular Product.

XII. PRODUCT COMPATIBILITY REQUIREMENTS
