Musicmatch: Lost licenses. Can't renew them, 'coz MusicMatch ->YahooMusic->Rhapsody

I downloaded 633 songs from Musicmatch, from 2004 to 2006, transferring them to my Creative Zen Mp3 player. For the most part, I listened on that and left the tunes on my laptop hard drive. I purchased a new desktop two years ago and transferred everything over to it before the laptop cratered, never thinking to check to see if my tunes would play on the new one. In the mean time, Musicmatch was absorbed by Yahoo! Music, and now they are morphing into Rhapsody, and I cannot find a way to renew my licenses, as they all have different licensing "agents". Did I lose the licenses for good when I transferred them to the new computer? Is there still a way to strip the DRM legally, since it is for my personal use? I'm a 63-year-old retiree on a fixed income, and would really hate to lose these tunes. Any help would be appreciated!
