Apologies for the error in my original post. Apparently the "escaped" characters got clobbered. Make sure to include the backslashes. Here are the corrected commands:

mdfind -onlyin ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes\ Music "kMDItemCopyright == '*Emi*' kMDItemCodecs == '*protected*' "

find . -name *.m4p -exec mdls -name "kMDItemCopyright" {} \;

OK, I think this will work for everyone now. Check out the file with all the label names and the revised command at http://jescala.com/content/view/14/1/.
