How to strip DRM off iTunes music and convert M4P to MP3
The music downloaded from iTunes is DRM protected as M4P, or “protected AAC”. If you want to play this kind of music beyond Apple environment (iTunes, iPod, iPhone, Apple TV), you need to remove the DRM and convert it to (DRM free) MP3, WMA, WAV format or else.
The following guide is going to show you how to convert iTunes M4P to MP3 for non-Apple mobile players like Zune, PSP, BlackBerry, mobile phone, Creative Zen, Sansa Fuze, G1/Gphone, xbox 360, PS3. It introduces three methods for converting M4P to MP3:
1. Burning and ripping CD in iTunes
2. Convert M4P to MP3 using Digital Music Converter
1. Burning and ripping CD in iTunes
a. Insert a CD-R or CD-RW disc into your CD-ROM drive.
b. Burn the iTunes M4P playlist to make an Audio CD. You cannot select the “MP3 CD” option since it requires the DRM protected iTunes M4P files be converted to MP3.
c. After the Audio CD is successfully burned, insert the disc into your CD-ROM drive again. Then you can use iTunes or Windows Media Player to import the music tracks on the burned disc as MP3 files.
2. Convert M4P to MP3 using Digital Music Converter

How To Rip DvD’s To Your Pc PS3 & Play Them On Your 360!

How to convert iPod to Zune HD transfer iTunes library to Zune HD convert DVD to Zune HD
Since the Zune Marketplace dosen’t offer movie download service, Zune holders who are not satisfied with the spare Zune Marketplace or want to watch movie in full length have to turn to iTunes, Amazon Unbox, or the normal DVD disk for feed.
However, unfortunately the .m4v movie, as well as the .m4p music and the .m4v TV shows, from iTunes are still copyright protected by Apple’s incoperatible ‘Fair Play’ DRM system, which prohibites other device but iPods playing iTunes content. Furthermore, the iTunes rented movies have dead limitation to watch within 30days and 24hrs (once you began to watch it).
It is the same situation when comes to the DRM-protected .wma music and .wmv video movie from other online base like Windows Media Centre, Napster, Rhapsody, Nokia Music Store, Spiralfrog, Bearshare, eMusic, Puretracks, MusicGiants, CinemaNow Movielink, Amazon Unbox, of course, and the Zune MarketPlace itself.
So unless Zune folks has a third party DRM Removal Software to strip the license protection and convert media formats to Zune compatible .wmv, .mp4, .m4v, or H.264, they can’t enjoy those digital content, as what the big brands said, “On The Go”!
Here this step-by-step guide which is divided into two parts FYI:
Part 1: How to sync and play iTunes music video on Zune player
1. Free download this DRM Media Converter, install and luanch it, the default settings work well with your PC, you don’t need to make anymore configeration.
2. When come to the main interface, you can directly drag-drop target media file to the conversion window, or hit the top-left ‘Add’ button to import the target files.
Since Zune plays WMV / M4V / MP4 / H.264 video files with peak 720 x 480 pixels and 30 fps, if you’re picky on the output quality, the function module ‘settings’ can help you with it by offering adjustable parameters covering Bit Rate, Resolution, Aspect Ratio, and Frame Rate as well.
3. When finish the preceding 2 steps, hit ‘start’ button lower-right on the main window, then everything done, you can freely enjoy iTunes rented movie & music video & TV shows on your Zune MP3 players without any ristriction!
(1) Port your Zune with computer, open the Zune software, select Settings, then Software.
(2) Under Monitored folders, add a folder under Music that corresponds to the location of your iTunes music files, and another one under Video that corresponds to the location of your iTunes video files. Zune software will automatically add them to your collection.
Part 2: How to play DVD movie on Zune player
If you want to transfer DVD movie to Zune, this DVD Ripper for Windows can help to crack DVD CSS protection, split DVD movie to clips, and convert them to Zune compatible audio & video formats.
If you’re a Mac-based user, this iMedia Converter for Mac is an ideal choice.
The conversion process is the same easy and simple as illustrated above, here I just saved it.
Tips:
The DRM Removal and DVD Ripper software mentioned above can do even more jobs by converting all the popular media formats like M4P, M4B, M4V, WMV, ASF, WMA, MP4, M4A, AVI (Divx/Xvid), MOV, 3GP, 3G2, CD.dat, DVD.vob, h.264, HD(.m2ts; .tp; .trp; .ts), HD(.mp4; .wmv; .asf; .mpg; .vob; .mov; avi), DV, NSV, NUT, Real audio & video(.rm; .ra; .ram; .rmvb), FLV, FLAC, AIFF, SWF, MPG, MP3, AC3, OGG, APE, AAC, WAV, MKV, MKA, etc.
They support not only Zune, but also the other digital player as iPod, iPhone, PSP, PS3, Zune, Xbox, Creative Zen, Archos, Iriver, Sansa, Blackberry, Samsung, Sonywalkman, Nokia, HTC, LG, Moto, Cowon, Pocket PC, etc
