iPod & DRM

Postby RobNJ » Mon Mar 21, 2011 10:29 pm

When I was young, foolish & had more disposable income, I bought a lot of DRM protected music on iTunes (was in the clutches of The Cult of Mac back then, too). Now that I'm middle-aged, foolish and can't afford the amount of money Apple wants to charge me for music I already own.. Is there a way to get the DRM infested M4P's to work with Linux?

Hello, I am not 100% sure but I remember reading about coping the music to a music CD as an MP3 will remove the DRM and then you can copy them back into LINUX and play them, or something like that.
