There's always faad2.

Actually, faad2 won't do the job.  The m4p format uses a variant of
the md5 hash algorithm to make it difficult to play this music on
anyone else's system.  It will play on my iPod and my iTunes
installation, but if I give the file to someone else, it won't play.

There's probably a key somewhere in the iTunes DB and installed on the
iPod that helps decode the hash.

I think I'll try jHymn, as suggested by anothe poster.

Thanks.

Well yes. If it's encrypted then it's best to use hymn to decrypt it in one form or another before decoding into an unencrypted version of the mp4 since it's an easier interface than faad. However, faad2 can 'brute force' (not correct use I know, but I was trying to emphasize my point rather and not be accurate necessarily) decrypting given a DRM key (from what I've read in the past), so although the solution may not be as ideal, it's still possible. jhymn already contains faad2 if you read the doc: http://hymn-project.org/jhymndoc/.
