Hello

I have a problem. A few months ago I made an account at Napster. So far I got tons of music downloaded from them, but I can't listen to this music everywhere I want, only on my computer because of some DRM protection. I would like to know if I there is a tool or a posibility to bypass this license legally in order to be able to do what i want with that music. :(

Thank you

Hello George,

I don't think that you have an alternative then to pay for your music if you want to burn it on a CD. As far as I know Napster charges 0.99 $ per track so it is not that much :unsure:

Anyway I'll try a search on some specific forums to see if there is a "legal" tool :P

I found something about a tool that re-records the output of the soundcard, and if you use this for personal use it's legal. Take a look at it www.tunebite.com

Try getting your hands on the "pulled" Winamp player. You can play your protected songs and "export" them to a .wav file. Re-encode the .wav file and the DRM rights are gone. :)

Where can I find this version of Winamp ? I read something about a plug-in from them, but this stopped working after some patch with DRM 9 or 10...don't remember exactly :no:

Thanks for the tips guys.

Btw. I tried dbpoweramp, and it doesn't convert the protected files. So far only Tunebite seems to work in bypassing the DRM protection :blink:

Wouldn't it be easier to use Nero to create an audio CD? But instead of recording to blank media, choose image recorder and save it as an .ISO.

Then you can use Daemon Tools or Alcohol 120% to mount the image, use CDEx to RIP the audio back into MP3 and there will be no DRM.

What version of Winamp should i get... the list is from.... 0.20 - 5.08... so which one is the "PULLED" version?

The best version to get is 2.95. But, if you want something more current. Get 5.02, I think that was the last version before DRM.

Hmm...One could use this method, but when you have lots of songs it's "a bit" time consuming :}

If you have just a few songs then your method is worth using.

Actually, if you burn onto DVD media and just the songs you want, you should be able to pack about 120 songs on a single DVD and just get CDEx to rip the entire image. The time consuming part will be burning a DVD image.

Even better, if you have a Dual Layer DVD, it will pack 240 songs.
