I have read about this problem before, but i haven't encountered it  
personally.
I'm using iMovie 5 and iDVD 5, and i just made a DVD with music  
purchased from the ITMS, and it plays on the burned DVD just fine.

Occasionally I have run into the problem where the purchased song  
will not play/import correctly in iMovie, if I import it from within  
iMovie itself. I seem to have no problem with the same file, if i  
drag it into iMovie from the Finder.
weird.

just an FYI.
