It's the High Time to Ditch the DRM protection!

In the bad old days, every song you bought legally on iTunes, Napster, or the Zune Marketplace had icky digital rights management stuff all over it, preventing you from playing it on "unapproved" devices or sharing it with friends. Though music DRM is mostly just an unpleasant memory, you may still have a library of old tunes that you want to convert to an unprotected format.

What's DRM?
DRM is the abbreviation of Digital Rights Management. However, it is also called Digital Restrictions Management because it's giving people more and more restrictions while the world should become more and more convenient. DRM is access control technologies to limit usage of digital media or devices. Most songs and videos being sold on iTunes store are DRM protected M4P files and M4V files, and for protable media players, it can be only played on several Apple portable media players. Although DRM makes many people feel troublesome, the fact is that iTunes store has become the biggest online music retailer in the world, it takes up more than 70% of online music market and many people buy songs from it. The M4V videos become more and more popular as well.
