Re: iTunes De-authorize issue on a G5
When you have a DRM track the first thing to do is create a non-DRM duplicate, then trash the original DRM file and never worry about authorization again. It's your music, who are they to authorize anything? -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Periodically I buy and rip CDs. Josh -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Then delete the tracks and re-import the CD. The resulting tracks will be free of DRM, but will be lower in quality than the originals, since you're putting them through a lossy codec to re-import thm. Whether or not the difference in quality is acceptable or even noticeable is a personal matter. I find it acceptable for mobile listening, not so when listening on a decent pair of speakers. Then again, I feel the same way about the original iTunes files. YMMV. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Well, that's the reason why, when I buy digital music, I do it mostly at Amazon. But that may change in the future, if they do with music the same thing they're already doing with ebooks and movies... -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
