How to transfer DRM protected iTunes M4P to BlackBerry Storm
"With a unique touch screen and cutting-edge multimedia capabilities, the BlackBerry Storm smartphone makes a great impression as you travel across town or to almost any corner of the world."
One of the great new features I am starting to enjoy on my BlackBerry Storm is the ability for it to play multimedia files and specifically audio (music).
First let's take a look at the video and audio formats supported by BlackBerry Storm:
Video format support: MPEG4 H.263, MPEG4 Part 2 Simple Profile, H.264, WMV
Audio format support: MP3, AAC, AAC+, eAAC+, WMA, WMA ProPlus
Basically, when you buy music from iTunes, it comes with a copyright protection called DRM. These DRM-protected songs are locked so that they only work with Apple MP3 players. That means that if you have a BlackBerry Storm, you cannot use iTunes music.
So, what is the solution? You have to burn a CD. When you do this, the DRM is removed (because the music is converted to a non-DRM-compatible media). After you burn the CD, you can rip it to your PC as an MP3 file which no longer has DRM.
Alternatively, you can use TuneClone. TuneClone makes a virtual CD-ROM drive, tricking your PC into believing that you are burning a CD. Therefore, the DRM is removed without wasting a CD.
Here is a link to a tutorial using TuneClone and iTunes 8:
http://www.tuneclone.com/itunes8-m4p-to-mp3.php
After you get the output MP3 files, you can now begin to transfer them to your BlackBerry Storm:
1. Connect your BlackBerry to you computer via the USB cable.
2. If you have properly enabled your Blackberry as a Mass Storage Device, your Blackberry's microSD card will show as a removable drive on your computer.
3. Double click on the Blackberry folder.
4. Double click on the music folder.
5. Copy your music files to your BlackBerry.
6. Disconnect your Blackberry from the USB cable and go to the "Multimedia" icon on you Blackberry. You need to disconnect when you use the Mass Storage device method as it disables direct access from the BlackBerry when connected to the PC via the USB cable.
7. Click on the Music icon.
8. Click on the Media Card folder.
9. Select your Music folder.
10. Select your Song.
11. Play and enjoy.
Done.

How to Convert iTunes M4P to Zune
You are considering buying a Microsoft Zune as you broke your iPod or had your iPod stolen. And you bought a lot of songs from iTunes store because you had money left on your iTunes gift card. You still want to enjoy those purchased songs on your Zune MP3 player. Or you own an iPod while your boyfriend/girlfriend has a Zune. And you hope to share the library of M4P music songs purchased from iTunes store under your account with your boyfriend/girlfriend. Here comes the headache! The M4P music you bought from iTunes is DRM-laden! You cannot transfer the iTunes M4P music to the Zune software, not to mention playing the iTunes M4P music on your Zune player.
Yet, there seems to be a solution. You can burn the protected M4P music files to CD-R or CD-RW disc to make an audio CD and then use some CD ripper software to convert the audio CD track back to Zune accepted MP3 or WMA. And iTunes allows you to burn the protected music files to CD-R or CD-RW disc to make a standard audio CD. Sounds a good idea! But it would be a time consuming process if you have a library of iTunes M4P music files ready to be converted to Zune MP3 or WMA. Moreover, the information about the M4P music files like title, artist and album will be lost after burning and ripping back to MP3 or WMA files. So this method is not recommended if you have a big collection of iTunes M4P music files ready to be transferred to your Zune.
I've made a Google search for programs that can convert iTunes M4P music to Zune WMA MP3, and TuneClone Audio Converter attracted my attention. The edge of TuneClone over other similar programs is that it applys the virtual CD burning technology to simulates the burning and ripping process. You just need to burn the iTunes M4P playlist to TuneClone virtual CD burner. Then TuneClone will directly convert the iTunes M4P music list to Zune WMA or MP3 for you. It is very fast and the information about each music song will be preserved perfectly. Below are several key steps to convert iTunes M4P music to Zune MP3 or WMA using TuneClone Audio Converter.
1. Make settings at TuneClone
Click the Settings button at TuneClone. In the pop-up window, you can specify the output folder, output filenames, output format, etc. for the converted MP3 or WMA files.
Tip: You can get the converted music folder by clicking the Folder button after the whole process.
2. Make settings at iTunes
Click Edit -> Preferences... -> Advanced -> Burning. Select TuneClone's virtual CD-RW drive as CD burner. In the Disc Format option, tick Audio CD.
Tip 1: In order to keep the information about the music, the Include CD Text option should be checked.
Tip 2: The most important step is to choose the cd burner. Then the software can convert the music files automatically.
3. Create a playlist
Create a playlist, and then add the iTunes M4P music files you want to convert to Zune WMA or MP3 into the playlist. After the conversion, the WMA or MP3 music folder should be located under the folder you specified at first. The name of the music folder should be the same as that of the iTunes playlist you created.
Tip: It is exceedingly easy and fast when you want to batch convert lots of files.
After you get the output folder, now you can transfer it to your Zune software so as to enjoy the iTunes music on your Zune music player.

How to remove iTunes DRM from protected AAC M4P M4B
Are you annoyed by iTunes DRM? Do you want to remove it because you
want to play the iTunes music on non-Apple MP3 players like PSP, Zune,
Creative Zen, BlackBerry, PS3, iriver, Walkman, mobile phone MP3
player, etc., use it as background music in a home video, or anything
else that DRM limits it to do? Many people know you can remove the DRM
from iTunes music by simply burning the song to a CD, and ripping it
back over, losing very little quality(if settings are correct):
1. Insert a CD-R or CD-RW disc into your CD-ROM drive. You'd better use CD-RW disc as it can be used for more than once.
2. Burn your playlist to make an audio CD. You cannot select the MP3 CD option since it requires the encrypted iTunes music files be converted to unprotected MP3 files.
3.
After the audio CD is successfully burned, insert the disc into your
CD-ROM drive again. Then you can use iTunes to import the music tracks
on the burned disc to MP3 files.
And the method I am going to
introduce does the same exact thing but you will not need a CD-RW disc,
a CD ROM drive, or even need to burn anything! It's that simple. Let's
show you how to perform this.
We are going to be using a program called TuneClone.
TuneClone is basically a program that acts as a virtual CD drive that
allows you "burn" MP3 from iTunes and "rip" it. TuneClone "lies" to
your computer saying that you have a CD-RW drive that it will burn to
(like Alchohol 120%). You can use this to move your library of M4P DRM
protected music to the MP3 format that you can use on any player out
there worth its salt. This is a useful tool for anyone looking to break
their relationship with the iPod. The best part is that it maintains
all of the music file's metadata. Below is the step by step tutorial
that shows how it works:
1. Download TuneClone from http://www.tuneclone.com and install it.
TuneClone
is fully compatible with Windows XP and Windows Vista. A virtual CD
Burner will be installed. This virtual CD-RW will be used to convert
music files.
2. Make settings at TuneClone
Click the Settings button at TuneClone. In the pop-up window, you can specify the output folder, output filenames, output format, etc. for the output files.
Note: Apart from MP3, TuneClone also allows you to convert iTunes M4P to WAV and unprotected WMA.
Tip: You can get the output protection removed music folder by clicking the Folder button after the whole process.
3. Make settings at iTunes(iTunes 8 )
Create a playlist, and then add the files you want to convert into the playlist.
After you have created the playlist ready to be burnt, click the Burn Disc in the bottom right of iTunes.
In the pop up window of Burn Settings, make the settings as highlighted below:
4. Start to burn
Click the Burn button to start burning.
After
the burning gets started, TuneClone will automatically convert the
music file to MP3, WMA or WAV. You can open the manager screen to show
all the converted music files.
The
most important step is to choose the CD burner. Then the software can
convert the music files automatically. It is exceedingly easy when you
want to batch convert lots of files.

Review on TuneClone Audio Converter
There is an in-depth review of TuneClone Audio Converter
software. The author gives an average score of 4.5 out of 5.
So
what do you think of this review? Is it fair and honest? Now let's take a look
at the highlights of this review:
iTunes has invaded pretty much all
musical use on the computer anymore, people who don't really know much about
computers hear about iTunes and assume that's what they're supposed to use for
their music on their computers. Case in point, a friend of mine does not own an
iPod, but yet he and his girlfriend used iTunes to transfer all of his music
over to his computer and it's kinda stuck there now. Well he'll be the first to
admit that he really doesn't know much about computers at all, so seeing as
iTunes was so popular that's what they decided to use for his music, of course
they didn't ask me anything at all. They transferred over many, many songs, and
of course his mp3 player, a Sandisk, can't play them so he was stuck with what
to do next. So he called me for help, mind you though, most of his music isn't
copy protected/copy righted etc, he's actually a world renowned Waltz or
Ballroom Dance instructor, so he's got tons of music he uses for that kind of
stuff, and once they spent the hours to put it in his computer via iTunes he was
basically stuck, it was either re-do it all through another program, buy an iPod
or figure out another way to get his music to his Sandisk player converted to
Mp3 format.
So there are a few free versions out there that will help my
friend out, but I needed something that was easy to use, very easy to use and I
found TuneClone, which is very easy to use so that's what I've got for review
today. TuneClone is a program to convert you iTunes or other music services
music over to mp3 format, quickly and easily. It essentially creates a virtual
CDRW drive on your computer and virtually burns the CD from the main program,
iTunes of other and then TuneClone automatically rips it to mp3 format for you,
so in a few easy steps you've got music that is easily transferred and played on
any device.
Tech Specs, Features or the Basic
Info:
Note: The information in this part is from TuneClone
homepage, so please go to http://www.tuneclone.com/index.php
to get to know about tech specs, features and basic info of TuneClone Audio
Converter.
Installation, Testing and
Comparison:
TuneClone is a download, so there are no box shots
etc, just download and install, very easy to do.
There's
really not much to do on the end user part of this program, most is done
automatically. Load up TuneClone and hit the 'Open Media Player' button and your
iTunes or whatever will open for you. If you wish you can change the output
directory, and other settings like bitrates etc, but for most the default
settings are fine.
To use TuneClone you just burn a CD with your program,
I'm using iTunes of course, you just have to make sure the destination drive is
the TuneClone virtual CD, other than that there's nothing else to change
really.
As soon as you hit burn, your CD will start to burn virtually and
then TuneClone goes to work converting the files to MP3 format for you
automatically.
That's it, there's really nothing much more to it, very
easy to use for even someone who doesn't know much about
computers.
Summary and Comments:
TuneClone is a
great way to free your music from one of the music services out there, it works
well, it works fast and it's very easy to use.
DragonSteelMods gives
TuneClone Audio Converter Software a 4.5 out of 5
score.
Pros:
-Easy use
-Fast
-Works
well
Cons:
-Expensive

How to play iTunes protected AAC (M4P) music on PS3?
"Can I play iTunes (that I have stored on my computer) on my PS3? I know I
can't just hook up my iPod to it or stream from my PC. I read something about
transferring music to USB and then put that flash drive in the PS3, will this
work? I want to play my iTunes on my home theater but I have no other way than
to play it through my PS3. I have a yamaha 5990 receiver and it is not iPod
compatible. Any options here? Thanks in advance."
As the music in iTunes is encrypted with DRM, you cannot directly transfer it
to your PS3. The easiest way is to burn the music to an audio CD and then rip it
back to Windows Media Player or a similar program as an MP3.
Or you can get some software to help you. TuneClone is a pretty good program
to get the iTunes protected AAC (M4P) music burned to MP3.
And this page demonstrates how to remove DRM from iTunes music and convert
iTunes DRM protected AAC (M4P) music to MP3 for Sony PlayStation 3(PS3) using
these two methods:
1. Burn an audio CD and rip it back to MP3
2. TuneClone
And below
is the tutorial page:
http://www.tuneclone.com/how-to-import-itunes-music-to-playstation3.php
So now you can listen to iTunes music while playing games with your PS3.

How to convert DVD video YouTube iTunes to Zune
Below is the step by step tutorial about how to transfer DVD movies and TV
shows, videos, YouTube and Google videos, iTunes DRM protected music to
Microsoft Zune.
Before getting started, let’s take a look at the audio and video formats
Microsoft Zune recognizes:
Audio Support
Windows Media Audio Standard (WMA) (.wma);
WMA Lossless; Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) (.mp4, .m4a, .m4b, .mov); MP3
(.mp3).
Video Support
Windows Media Video (WMV) (.wmv); MPEG-4
(MP4/M4V) (.mp4) Part 2 video; H.264 video; DVR-MS.
So, you see, in order to put DVD movies and TV shows, video files and YouTube
and Google video onto Zune, you will need a converter that will go from DVD and
video to Zune WMV or MP4 (Video) or Zune WMA or MP3 (Audio). This kind of
program can only rip the DVD’s or convert the video files to your PC, however,
Microsoft offers Zune users the free program called “Zune Software” to sync the
media from PC to Zune. You just need to download it from its official website
http://www.zune.net , where you can get the most detailed information about Zune
as well.
In this tutorial, I’d like to demonstrate how to rip DVD’s and convert videos
to Zune using Clone2Go DVD to
Zune Converter. The reason I choose it lies in that, unlike other
DVD to Zune converters that can rip only DVD movies for Zune, this DVD to Zune
converter can also be used to convert regular video files to Zune. Plus, it
allows you to download videos from YouTube and Google and then convert YouTube
FLV videos to some format accepted by Zune. Let’s take a look at how it
performs:
1. Add DVD movies or TV shows
Insert the DVD disc into the disc drive, click the Open DVD button
to import it if you are going to enjoy the DVD movie on your Zune. Or if the DVD
movie is saved as a folder on your computer, you need to click the Add
Video button to locate that folder, which is composed of two separate
folders: VIDEO_TS and AUIDO_TS. From the VIDEO_TS folder, select the .vob file
to import and then click OK.
2. Import video files
You can also import videos stored on your PC by clicking the Add
Video button and then click OK. The supporting formats are shown
as follows:
3. Download YouTube or Google videos
If you want to enjoy online YouTube or Google videos on your Zune, click the
YouTube button on the main interface. In the pop-up window, copy and
paste the URLs of the YouTube videos one by one.
There will be a list of the added YouTube videos, which will be downloaded
automatically one by one. And the downloading status is clearly shown on the
list. After the status of all of them indicates Completed, you can tick
whichever videos you want to watch on your Zune.
After the DVD’s, videos or YouTube/Google videos are imported, you can
preview it on the main interface. If you only want a clip of the DVD/video, you
can drag the Start to trim and Stop to trim button to get the
certain segment.
After making sure you have chosen the right profile from the Profile
drop-down list, now you can click the Start Encode button to starting
ripping DVD movies or TV shows, converting videos or downloading and converting
online YouTube/Google videos for your Zune.
4. Convert iTunes M4P music to Zune
The music downloaded from iTunes Store is under DRM protection. In order to
play it on your Zune, you need to strip the DRM off and have the iTunes
protected AAC (M4P) music converted to Zune WMA or MP3 format. The easiest way
is to burn the iTunes M4P playlist to CD-R or CD-RW disc to make an audio CD and
then use some CD ripper software to convert the audio CD track back to MP3. And
iTunes allows you to burn the protected music files to CD-R or CD-RW disc to
make a standard audio CD:
A. Insert a CD-R or CD-RW disc into your CD-ROM drive. You’d better use CD-RW
disc as it can be used for more than once.
B. Create a new playlist in
iTunes. Add the protected songs to your playlist until you have 72 minutes of
music. Click the Burn Disc button, in the pop-up window of Burn
Settings, tick Audio CD from the Disc Format checkboxes.
Note: You cannot select the MP3 CD option since it requires the
protected music files be converted to unprotected MP3 or WMA files.
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 to MP3 or WMA files.

How to Enjoy DVD/Video/YouTube/iTunes/WMA on Mobile Phone
Apart from the basic functions of calling and SMS, a mobile phone is also a pretty good multimedia player, which enables you to play games, enjoy videos and music and browse images etc., so long as the media is accepted by the specific phone. In order to know which formats the specific phone accepts, you can make a simple Google search or visit the tech specs page in the official website of the phone.
If you want to enjoy DVD movies on your mobile phone, you have to get a DVD ripping program to help you rip the DVD movies to the format (MP4, 3GP, AVI, etc.) supported by your phone. Here, I'd recommend using Clone2Go DVD Ripper, which I have been using for a long time. The main reason I am fond of it is that, apart from the DVD ripping feature, it also serves as an all-in-one video converter. Plus, it allows you to download videos from YouTube.com and convert YouTube FLV videos to any other video format you need. So this DVD ripper can help you rip DVD movies to mobile phone video, convert any video to mobile phone video and even convert online YouTube video for your mobile phone. However, it is not free. It does cost you USD39.95 to register the full version. And there really exist many counterpart freewares to do so. Yet, it is well worth a try if you want to avoid the trouble of getting these programs from time to time. Here is the screenshot I captured from Clone2Go DVD Ripper.
Personally speaking, due to the narrow screen, I don't like playing games or videos with my mobile phone. However, I do enjoy listening to all kinds of music with my mobile phone. If you have downloaded songs from a CD or a shareware site like Limewire, you can easily put them on your mobile phone. However, any song you purchased directly from iTunes store will not play on your phone, due that it is encrypted by DRM. I have found the easiest way is to burn the music to an audio CD and then rip it back to Windows Media Player or a similar program as an MP3. And Wordpress has a little tutorial that shows how to get MP3 files from iTunes DRM protected AAC (M4P) music in two different ways. One is to burn an audio CD in iTunes and then rip the CD back to MP3 as I mentioned. The other is to use a program called TuneClone, a piece of software that works extremely great for converting a large collection of DRM protected iTunes music to MP3, with the metadata of the music well preserved at the same time. Together with Windows Media Player, TuneClone can also help you get DRM protected WMA (Windows Media Audio) music converted to MP3 for your mobile phone.
At last you can get a microSD card, with which you can transfer the videos and music to your phone to enjoy them wherever you go. Of course, you can also get some software to help you transfer the output files from your PC to your phone. Many of them are available online.

How to convert protected WMA to MP3 for iPod
"The majority of my albums are in my Windows Media Player and I would like to transfer those albums to my iPod. Now I don't know how to. All I know is that WMA is not compatible with Apple iPod. So how do I rescue my songs? I tried to use limewire to download free music but it is a mess."
If you meet the same problem, you got the right place! The following tutorial details how to put both protected and unprotected WMA (Windows Media Audio) music files to iPod.
If the WMA files you are going to play on your iPod are unprotected, you just select and drag them into iTunes Library and they should be automatically converted to whatever iPod format you selected in iTunes preferences for importing.
If they are WMA files protected by DRM, it is not that easy. You need to use some software to strip the DRM off your WMA files and then convert the WMA files to the much more widely-supported MP3 format.
Note: As with any transcoding, the quality will go down. But if you've got a lot of protected WMA files you'd like to get on your iPod, this solution would do the trick.
In this tutorial, I'd like to show how to remove DRM from WMA files and convert the WMA files to MP3 format using TuneClone Audio Converter. Let’s take a look at how it performs:
1. Settings at TuneClone
Download TuneClone (fully compatible with Windows XP and Windows Vista) and install it. After launching TuneClone, click the Settings button. In the pop-up dialog of Options, you can specify the Output Folder, Output Filenames, Output Format (here we choose MP3), etc. for the output files.
Tip: You can get the output protection removed MP3 music folder by clicking the Folder button after the whole process.
2. Burning at Windows Media Player(WMP 11)
Create a new playlist and drag into it the WMA files you are going to enjoy on your iPod. After that, click the Burn button and select Audio CD from the drop-down list. On the right panel of CD Drive, click Next Drive to locate the CD drive to TuneClone's Virtual CD Burner.
Note: If you are unsure whether TuneClone's Virtual CD burner is successfully installed or where it is installed, please refer to the bottom left corner of TuneClone:
Then, drag the playlist you created just now to the Burn List and click the Start Burn button to start burning the playlist. While the burning gets started, TuneClone will automatically convert the WMA playlist to MP3 files. You can open the manager screen to show all the converted music files.
Note: If you get the output files formatted as 01-1.mp3, 01-2.mp3, etc., please click the output MP3 songs in the manager screen and drag the counterpart original WMA songs to the Track Info panel of TuneClone one by one. The information about the artist, album, title, etc. will be changed accordingly. It would be a time-consuming process if you are burning a big collection of music. However, since Windows Media Player 11 doesn't support CD-text burning, this seems to be the only way to get the information back.
After you get the output MP3 files converted from the WMA playlist in your Windows Media Player, you can now begin to transfer the MP3 files to your iPod with the sync of iTunes.

Updated: How to convert iTunes protected AAC(M4P) to MP3(using iTunes 8)
More than two months ago, I wrote a tutorial entitled How to Convert iTunes M4P to MP3. In that post, I introduced two ways to convert iTunes M4P(protected AAC) music to MP3: burning and ripping CD disc and using TuneClone. With the release of Apple genius iTunes 8, the second method of converting iTunes M4P(protected AAC) music to MP3 with TuneClone isn't applicable, as there's some difference between iTunes 8 and its previous version. So, I'd like to post the step by step tutorial about how to convert iTunes 8 protected AAC or say M4P music to MP3 with TuneClone below:
1. Download TuneClone from http://www.tuneclone.com and install it.
TuneClone is fully compatible with Windows XP and Windows Vista. A virtual CD Burner will be installed. This virtual CD-RW will be used to convert music files.
2. Make settings at TuneClone
Click the Settings button at TuneClone. In the pop-up window, you can specify the output folder, output filenames, output format, etc. for the output files.
Note: Apart from MP3, TuneClone also allows you to convert iTunes M4P to WAV and unprotected WMA.
Tip: You can get the output protection removed music folder by clicking the Folder button after the whole process.
3. Make settings at iTunes
Create a playlist, and then add the files you want to convert into the playlist.
After you have created the playlist ready to be burnt, click the Burn Disc in the bottom right of iTunes.
In the pop up window of Burn Settings, make the settings as highlighted below:
4. Start to burn
Click the Burn button to start burning.
After the burning gets started, TuneClone will automatically convert the music file to MP3, WMA or WAV. You can open the manager screen to show all the converted music files.
The most important step is to choose the CD burner. Then the software can convert the music files automatically. It is exceedingly easy when you want to batch convert lots of files.

Ways to remove DRM from iTunes music on Windows and Mac
There are many ways to remove DRM protection from iTunes music. On Windows OS, you can remove the DRM from iTunes music using the burn-and-rip method or you can turn to programs like TuneClone and DoubleTwist. On Mac OS X, iMovie is the perfect solution to removing DRM from iTunes music. Besides, freewares like FairGame is also a pretty good choice. So this article is dedicated to introducing several methods of removing the nasty DRM from iTunes music on Windows and Mac OS X. It is divided into the following four parts:
Part 1. Remove DRM from iTunes music on Windows with burn-and-rip method
A. Insert a CD-R or CD-RW disc into your CD-ROM drive. You’d better use CD-RW disc as it can be used for more than once.
B. Burn your playlist to make an audio CD. You cannot select the MP3 CD option since it requires the protected music files be converted to unprotected MP3 files.
C. After the audio CD is successfully burned, insert the disc into your CD-ROM drive again. Then you can use iTunes to import the music tracks on the burned disc to MP3 files.
Part 2. Remove DRM from iTunes music on Windows with TuneClone
A. Download TuneClone from http://www.tuneclone.com and install it.
It is fully compatible with Windows XP and Vista. A virtual CD Burner will be installed. This virtual CD-RW will be used to convert music files.
B. Set the default CD Burner to TuneClon CD-RW at iTunes.
Click menu Edit, select menu item Preferences..., and then select Advanced Tab. In order to keep the artist and title information of the music, the Include CD Text option should be checked.
C. Create a playlist, and then add the files you want to convert into the playlist.
D. Click Burn Disc button at the bottom right of the main screen of iTunes.
While the burning gets started, TuneClone will automatically convert the music file to MP3, WMA or WAV. You can open the manager screen to show all the converted music files.
The most important step is to choose the cd burner. Then the software can convert the music files automatically. It is exceedingly easy when you want to batch convert lots of files.
Part 3. Remove DRM from iTunes music on Mac OS X with iMovie
In the iMovie window, select the 'Media' tab located between 'Themes' and 'Editing'. You will notice that the top right portion of the interface now offers a media browser. Select the 'Audio' tab and locate the playlist which contains purchased music, or search by artist/title.
Select the DRM-laden song and drag the file from the media browser into the iMovie timeline where it says "Drag audio here to build your project."
In order to export the song, iMovie requires that a visual image be associated with the audio track - iMovie thinks that it is going to be exporting a movie. Simply drag a blank image (or any other image) to the track above the previously imported audio file. Once iMovie has processed the image, select the 'Share…' sub menu item from found inside 'Share' in iMovie's menu bar.
Ensure that 'Expert Settings' is selected in the "Compress movie for:" drop-down menu. Selecting 'Expert Settings' mode will provide the options to export the file as an audio file. Select the 'Share' button.
In the Save as… dialogue, select "Sound to AIFF" in the Export drop-down menu, Choose an appropriate directory for iMovie to export to, title the file, and select 'Save'. Depending on your machine configuration, iMovie will compress and export the movie project as an audio file in 15-40 seconds.
Locate the exported AIFF audio file and drag to your iTunes Library. Right-click on the file and select "Convert Selection to AAC". Once completed, 'Get Info' on the new file, edit meta data, add album art, and trash the originally purchased and AIFF audio files from your iTunes library.
Part 4. Remove DRM from iTunes music on Mac OS X with FairGame
FairGame is freeware to remove DRM protection from iTunes music on Mac OS X. It will convert the DRMed songs you bought on the iTunes Store to an unprotected format (using iTunes default encoder) and keep all the original metadata, lyrics and artwork. FairGame doesn't do lossless DRM stripping. It re-encodes protected AAC files purchased in iTMS into unprotected AAC file using Apple's iMovie software.
What you MUST DO (only once) to get FairGame to work:
- Enable "Access for assistive devices" in the "Universal Access" system preference
- Select "Place clip in Movie Timeline" in the "Import" preference of iMovie HD
Then you can simply:
- Select some songs in iTunes
- Click on the "Process songs" button
Don't touch anything and wait until it's done...(FairGame is scripting iMovie's interface to process the songs, don't interfere)

How to convert iTunes M4P to PSP
It is no doubt PSP is a great game player. But it is also a very good entertainment device which can be used for playing music. Assume you have some songs on your iTunes and are trying to figure out how to put them on your PSP. You copy and paste them in the PSP music folder, however, the PSP doesn't recognize the songs as music at all. So what's wrong? Don't worry! This guide will help you out of the trouble.
The music downloaded from iTunes is under DRM protection. In order to play it on your PSP, you need to strip the DRM off and have the iTunes M4P M4A converted to PSP MP3 format. You can burn the protected M4P music files to CD-R or CD-RW disc to make an audio CD and then use some CD ripper software to convert the audio CD track back to PSP MP3. Also iTunes allows you to burn the protected music files to CD-R or CD-RW disc to make a standard audio CD:
1. Insert a CD-R or CD-RW disc into your CD-ROM drive. You'd better use CD-RW disc as it can be used for more than once.
2. Create a new playlist in iTunes. Add the protected songs to your playlist until you have 72 minutes of music. Click Edit and select Preferences. Select the Advanced tab. Tick the Audio CD option on the Burning tab. Click the Burn Disc button to make an audio CD.
Note: You cannot select the MP3 CD option since it requires the protected music files be converted to unprotected MP3 files.
3. 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 to MP3 files.
Sounds a good idea! But it would be a time consuming process if you have a library of iTunes M4P music files ready to be converted to PSP MP3 for playback on your PSP. And it is a waste of CD discs. Moreover, the information about the M4P music files like title, artist and album will be lost after burning and ripping back to MP3 or WMA files. So this method is not recommended if you have a big collection of iTunes M4P music files ready to be transferred to your PSP.
Here, I would recommend using TuneClone M4P to MP3 Converter to convert iTunes M4P to PSP MP3. It applys the virtual CD burning technology to simulates the burning and ripping process. You just need to burn the iTunes M4P playlist to TuneClone virtual CD burner. Then TuneClone will directly convert the iTunes M4P music list to PSP MP3 for you. It is very fast and the information about each music song will be preserved perfectly. You can follow its the step by step tutorial to learn how to convert iTunes DRM protected M4P music to PSP MP3.
After getting the output MP3 files by adopting either the burn-and-rip method or the way of using TuneClone M4P to MP3 Converter, now you can begin to transfer the MP3 files to your PSP:
- Connect the PSP to your PC with a USB cable.
- Press the "home" button on the PSP (it's a tiny button to the lower left of the screen) then use the left-right directional buttons to find "Settings", then the up-down buttons to find "USB Connection" on the PSP.
- Press the "X" button (you got it, the round button with the "X" on it) and your PSP should display "USB Connection".
- In a moment or two your computer should tell you that a new USB device has been connected, then show you a new generic hard drive, usually E: or F:
- Click on the drive letter that corresponds to the PSP unit.
- Now create a new folder on that drive and name it "psp".
- Within the new "psp" folder create another folder, and name it "music".
- Copy your desired mp3 files into the new "music" folder.
- When you're done copying your desired music tracks, press the "O" button on the PSP to get out of USB connect mode.
Now you're ready to go! Use the left-right arrows to move to the music area, then the up-down arrows to find "Memory Stick". Choose that folder by pressing the "X" button again, and you should be able to find all your favorite music!

How to import iTunes M4P music to Windows Movie Maker
Many people are fond of making slideshows on their Windows Movie Maker, however, it won't let them import any purchased music as it is DRM protected. Since iTunes store tops the music retailer in the world, the following tutorial focuses on how to convert purchased iTunes M4P music to MP3, WAV or unprotected WMA so as to import it to Windows Movie Maker project as background music. The tutorial is composed of the following three parts:
Part 1. Something about Windows Movie Maker
Windows Movie Maker is a totally free program that comes with Windows XP Home Edition, Windows XP Media Center Edition, Windows XP Professional, and Windows Vista. Below are the audio/video formats accepted by Windows Movie Maker:
Video files: .asf, .avi, .wmv
Movie files: MPEG1, .mpeg, .mpg, .mlv, .mp2
Audio files: .wav, .snd, .au, .aif, .aifc, .aiff
Windows media files: .asf, .wm, .wma, .wmv
MP3 format audio: .mp3
Part 2. Remove DRM from iTunes M4P music
The songs you purchased from iTunes store are under DRM protection. You cannot directly import them to your Windows Movie Maker project. However you can burn the protected music files to CD-R or CD-RW disc to make an audio CD and then use some CD ripper software to convert the audio CD track back to MP3, WAV, WMA, etc. And iTunes allows you to burn the protected music files to CD-R or CD-RW disc to make a standard audio CD:
1. Insert a CD-R or CD-RW disc into your CD-ROM drive. You'd better use CD-RW disc as it can be used for more than once.
2. Burn your playlist to make an audio CD. You cannot select the MP3 CD option since it requires the protected music files be converted to unprotected MP3 files.
3. After the audio CD is successfully burned, insert the disc into your CD-ROM drive again. Then you can use iTunes to import the music tracks on the burned disc to MP3 files.
The steps are very simple indeed. Yet, I'd like to introduce a practical application called TuneClone M4P to MP3 Converter. It applies the virtual CD burning technology so that there is no need to use real disc. You can use it to move your library of M4P DRM protected music to the MP3 format that you can use on any player out there worth its salt. This is a useful tool for anyone looking to break their relationship with the iPod. The best part is that it maintains all of the music file's metadata. You can learn how to remove DRM from iTunes M4P music with TuneClone M4P to MP3 Converter from this guide.
Part 3. Add the output DRM-free music to Windows Movie Maker
After you get the output DRM-free music by adopting either the disc burning/ripping method or virtual CD burning method discussed in Part 2, now you can begin to import it into your Windows Movie Maker project.
Click on File. Then click on Import. A window will appear. In the window, navigate to the sound or music file you want to add to your movie. Then double click on the file. You'll see the icon for the file in your Windows Movie Maker "collections". Click on the icon and drag it on to the timeline to the part of the video you want the sound or music to play.
