But you can go grab QTFairUse from somewhere on the net and, using it in conjunction with iTunes on a Windows machine, remove the DRM. From what I can tell, all it really does is control the iTunes player and make it output the audio stream to another file instead of decoding it to the sound system. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Burn them to CD, and then rip the CDs. There's a loss of quality involved. In the future, don't buy music with DRM, if you don't want to put up with it. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Re: Ipod software
Thanks for the suggestions. I am trying out gtkpod now, and it seems to work fine, although I wish that there was a non/gui type program. BTW, is it possible to convert mp3 files that were purchased originally from the Apple store via iTunes so that they could be used on non/iTunes players?
