My wife and I purchased music from iTunes for a while, but I've now gone back to only buying music on CD. The rest of those folks out there who illegally copy music will *always* be able to get around it since the whole DRM idea is deeply flawed. For honest users (like me, and I presume you) all it does is get in the way. This is because ripping it to compressed format would effectively be double-compressing the file.Įither way it's a pain and everyone wishes that this silly DRM stuff would just go away.

The burn-to-CD then rip option is really the only other alternative, but has the drawback of requiring that you rip the song to a (large) lossless format if you want to preserve the full fidelity of the original. QTFairUse works by grabbing the AAC frames out of memory, after they've been decrypted but before being decoded to PCM data and sent to the sound card.There have been some applications to strip out the DRM such as JHymn, but I'm not sure if any of these work anymore with current iTunes files.

204.185.81.1 ( talk) 22:54, 20 February 2008 (UTC) Last time I checked, PC sound cards (or onboard audio) were just DACs, with some MIDI stuff thrown in. 201.212.44.26 ( talk) 20:15, 28 November 2007 (UTC) "So the sound card is decompressing the stream? I would have expected iTunes to send already decompressed audio to the card." Of course the sound card is the one decompressing it, otherwise there would be no point in having a sound card as the cpu would be doing all the transitioning. "intercepts the unencrypted AAC data stream as it is sent to the sound card"? So the sound card is decompressing the stream? I would have expected iTunes to send already decompressed audio to the card. Gronky 21:10, 23 October 2007 (UTC) Sound card? It kinda sucks how you can't really control it, but it the only thing out there that can do it that I know of after qtFairUse 6 was stopped. It will convert all your protected songs into mp3.

Later bought by Red Hat, Cygnus was probably the first big free software development company. To free your music from iTunes use doubleTwist.

It will remain on the portal for a week or so. The purpose of selecting an article is both to point readers to the article and to highlight it to potential contributors. 201.212.44.26 ( talk) 20:15, 28 November 2007 (UTC) Portal:Free software: QTFairUse now the selected article 68.58.16.36 21:33, 24 October 2007 (UTC) He was asking if the output (raw PCM sound) would be bit-by-bit identical. If you were to compare the files bit-by-bit they would be different as you're going from encrypted data to decrypted data and we've got to put that decrypted data into a new AAC container. The application works by grabbing the decrypted AAC-audio bytes from memory after/as iTunes decrypts the tracks. If you were to compare the bit for bit output between an encrypted file, and one after being stripped of DRM, is there any difference?
