There is good information about ITunes and their encryption here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FairPlay
This came into play for me just the other day. I had been hyping Squeezebox and Slimserver to my brother and he was ready to take the plunge and give it a try. Then he mentioned, "Oh yeah, this will play all the songs I've been buying on ITunes, right?" Grrrrrr [EMAIL PROTECTED]@$ Microsoft takes a ton of crap for their monopolistic practices ( M$ lol etc), but I don't think they've ever really pissed me off as much as this ITunes encryption does. I encourage everyone to spread the word whenever they hear someone using ITunes to buy music. You not only buy music, you are buying into the necessity to buy your hardware from Apple whenever you want to play that music. Getting back to the original poster's question: Another option you have is to burn the music to CD then rip it back from the CDs in another form like MP3. Whether or not this is a potential solution really depends on the amount of songs they have bought. -- NWP ------------------------------------------------------------------------ NWP's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3730 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=22072 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
