Read all about it...iTunes DRM might be history soon...or at least people will have the ability to circumvent it. 
Itunes Drm Targeted
hackers always win. :6
Haha, I never even knew there was copy-protection on files downloaded from Apple! I should've known though, it's common sense. Way to go Johansen!
yo hell with these filthy rich ,jaguar driving bastards, long live johansen.....word :bow:
Hmm, this is funny. I just had someone tell me one thing that itunes had was no DRM compared to wmp which did have them. Its nice to see the truth come out.
Poor executives are loosing money and instead of taking the lost money out of their own pay checks they fire people and claim theyre fighting on the just and true side. Well maybe if they would lower CD prices to a more reasonable price and be truly benevolent and try and save jobs there would be no problems.

No, they are talking about music that comes from the iTunes store. Not general use, or iTunes ripped songs.
Yes, true. Any file you personally rip with iTunes is not protected in any way (although you do need a media player that plays AAC files to be able to hear them...which iTunes is not necessarily the only one that qualifies).
However, the files you buy on the iTunes music store are protected, and while most people don't have a problem and think they're quite lenient with the DRM, others don't like it...

AAC? I know that the songs from the store are AAC encoded, but songs you personally rip are whatever you tell it to encode. They don't have to be AAC.
sry, I was making the assumption that most people who ripped using iTunes used AAC...otherwise I'd rip with EAC.
