What is Digg?54 Comments
- ClassicResort, on 10/12/2007, -1/+15Programs like this use iTunes to decrypt the AAC then grab the file as it passes through the handler -- much higher quality than the "record what you hear method" and more efficient than the "burn a CD" method...
- WraithFX, on 10/12/2007, -4/+15Well.. that sounds slower than using this program...
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11Completely false.. this program actually grabs the actual AAC stream as iTunes decrypts it, no recording is being done.
- t.toe, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10we're getting there... it's so close I can smell it!
- t0ny, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9Just get a old version of itunes v5 I think and use Jhymn. Works good for me.
As long as you dont use the video you wont mess much. The only thing I use Itunes for is buying music then I de-drm it and play it on my Linux box or my xbox media center. Or play it on my non-ipod mp3 player like my palm pilot (now dead :( ). - ltb0ngo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8Ok version 2.0 of QTFairUse6 saves the metadata (album art, artist, song title blah blah blah) so these people need to update there program and it's in acc because it would be re-encoding if you changed it to mp3 and you would lose quality which is what this program is trying to avoid.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+10Next version of QTFairUse is already out! It automates the conversion to m4a (no more faad!), keeps the meta data, and will even automatically go through your entire library and unDRM the entire thing! Greatly improved over 1.0.

(Lossy transcoding). You can usually hear the difference on a home stereo system, but I doubt you can on an iPod. Look up an ABX test if you would like to see if you can tell the difference using your method. The link's here by the way for myTunes: http://hymn-project.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1555

OMG!?!?!?!!?!?! No way, RW!?!!?!???!!!!111
With a 3000 song collection, it would still be a painful burning/ripping/repeat many times process. - doug22, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7they need to change that programs name though cause mytunes is the name of the program to download music from itunes on a network http://www.minimalverbosity.com/
- gsmithEIDW, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9Cost of blank cd's??? huh??? have you never heard of cdrw?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
- GoodBrain, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6This program intercepts the data between decryption and decoding.
- foolfromhell, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6If I bought a song on iTunes, I would backup all my songs on multiple CDs anyway. If you spent $3000 on 3000 songs from iTunes, why wont you protect the investment? If your HDD failed, its $3000 you are wasting. I always back my songsa onto CDs. If you want, just re-import when needed
- X18999, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Instead of burning to a disc why don't you make and image files of a disc and use daemon tools to make a virtual CD and "rip" it from that, a little faster than burning a CD and it cost no money.
- zelphi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Yeah, they definitely should change the name. Maybe MyFairTunes?
- chicken101, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6@nixr
*make a playlist
*burn it (yes this can be done with drm aac files)
*rip them back
By the way, I was merely stating how I did it, since I only have bought a few songs from iTunes (20?), this is a good way to do it if you have a small collection of iTunes purchased music. - omaryak, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6They're not yourTunes unless youPaid for them.
- EtherGnat, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4What business is it of yours what anybody else does with their money? I hardly buy any music but to each their own. If you do the math it could be like one CD a week which isn't terribly excessive. I know college kids that buy that much music easily.
I'm sure there's something you spend money on (software, hardware, cars, women, eating out) that other people would think is a waste. - pkulak, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Ironc that you're calling it retarded, yet completely misunderstand it yourself. Looks like you're the retard, eh?
- aplardi, on 10/12/2007, -5/+8That is true and it works perfectly. But after a while, when you have about 3000 iTunes songs like myself, you spend a lot of "moneys" on blank cds.
- JED9, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3anyone know of a good app that does that for Mac?
- tacom8, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3they did, now they want to do whatever they want with the copy they paid for... DRM sucks teh balls but it's the reality of online music purchases
- tylerni7, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Are you retarded? This is for letting you play the damned music that you bought without iTunes or an iPod. It is useless unless you already buy the music.
- Bootes, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Well it just created a 0kb file for me. :( I didn't try anything to make it work after it failed on one song though. I'll try again later.
- digitaldivider, on 10/12/2007, -8/+10here's an idea: ***** itunes and ***** apple by returning your ipod and uninstalling itunes.
- jhurliman, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Of course the output is AAC, that's what the input is. If you don't want AAC files steer clear of the iTunes music store. Stripping DRM from protected files and doing lossy conversions from one compression format to another are completely different realms.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2A DRMed stripper is one who won't let you touch her assets, isn't it?
- .Steven, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2http://rapidshare.de/files/31645151/myTunes.zip
- EtherGnat, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2There's a big difference between illegal and immoral. While the DMCA might make tampering with iTunes' encryption illegal, some feel it is not immoral to do so in pursuit of otherwise legal fair use.
Others may live in countries without any equivalent legislation to the DMCA where bypassing restrictions on purchased songs is completely legal. - Splizxer, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Can't you bewns use a virtual drive to burn a CD?
- Nick42, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Yeah, or better still, there's SharpMusique. I've found it to be much less hassle than buying the songs and removing the DRM after the fact.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I'm still pissed off about paying $30 a CD during the 90's. I'm not getting pwned like that again.
Hello Emule... - flarn2006, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1DRM sucks! What's the point of it anyway?
- EtherGnat, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Anybody know of a way to take a video podcast and rip to another video format or video DVD? In a pinch I'd settle for just the audio, but I'd really like to have the video too.
- omaryak, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Unfortunately people also use it to transfer songs to other people's music libraries. And it violates the DMCA.
- artisian, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Why pay a dollar to legally purchase songs and then do something illegal to them? Either buy legit songs and don't touch em or just pirate the damn things - make up your mind.
- camintmier, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Most video podcasts aren't DRM encoded (I think...), so all you'd probably have to do is use some sort of video editing program to do it. Might be able to do it with VirtualDub, provided you run the file thru an AVISynth template. Since most video podcasts are either in M4V or MOV format, try searching online for "M4V to AVI" or "M4V to" whatever you wanna encode to.
- skyfaller, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0omaryak: Some programs like this one leave personal information attached to the file, so it's fine if you're stripping the DRM for your own use, but if you share it widely it can be tracked back to you. I don't know whether this one does as well, and I would want to check if it does before I share my music with anyone ;-)
- cyanite16, on 12/15/2008, -0/+0 I just like to use Daniusoft media converter pro, it can remove DRM protection from itunes m4v m4p m4a aac and wmv wma, ec protected music video files legally and convert other video & music even HD video in high quality. works easy and great
http://www.wmatomp3-converter.com/digital-media-co ... - fatdog789, on 10/12/2007, -4/+3that is recording. its taking the digital data, not the analog.
- ezyeric, on 10/12/2007, -6/+5"Then, just hit play on your DRMed track, and it will begin the DRM stripping process."
DRM stripping? If you have to play the song then wtf is that, you could just be recording it with any audio recording program and output the file to any format.
"(hey, that's 8 hours of un-DRMed music a day, not too bad)."
Yeah or you could use the olf fashioned burn to cd and rip method and do it much faster. Minus a 15 cent CD.
Someone correct me if I am wrong.
I also didnt find a link anywhere. - silvermotion, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0why the hell would we want to do that? its expensive.i already got buy a ipod and a computer and internet connection. the least they can do now is provide me with something to do with all that crap.
- pkulak, on 10/12/2007, -5/+3Parrallels. ;)
- Japhyat, on 10/12/2007, -5/+3Still a long way to go 'till it becomes useful. No metadata saved, aac - format as output,...
- revad, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1You actually bought 3000 songs from iTunes? Holy Crap you are stupid.
- nicklinus, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1if your on a mac you can use audio hijack pro and itunes and play the song mac in realtime and copy it that way.
- blankman, on 10/12/2007, -7/+1Just record them to mp3 using something like: http://audacity.sourceforge.net/
- gsmithEIDW, on 10/12/2007, -7/+1nothing here, please bury
- Blumeroom, on 10/12/2007, -9/+2ULTRAVOX? No digg for lack of respect.
- Andy3, on 10/12/2007, -7/+0Anyone ever thought of just buying the Dammmm MUSIC!! ??
