Sometimes I
try to download files from iTunes to another device or player, only to find
that the files won't play. This is because the file is
protected, and to play it you must first remove its protection. Today I'd like to introduce a few tools for removing
protection.
1.
Leawo
Prof. DRM
Leawo Prof. DRM is designed as an
all-featured DRM removal program and DRM media converter. It consists of 4 main
modules including iTunes Vudeo/Music Converter, eBook Converter, Audible Converter,

2. Requiem
Requiem is
enjoying great popularity as it can remove FairPlay DRM (created by Apple Inc)
from songs, videos, and eBooks purchased on iTunes. It is the
best freeware to decrypt Apple’s DRM-ed files free from protecting
without any loss of quality from the original source file. However, Requiem has
stopped updating since 2012, and Requiem 4.1 was the last version. However,
Requiem is not compatible with iTunes 12. If you really want to strip DRM for
free with Requiem, then you would have to downgrade your iTunes to Version
10.7 or lower version.
3. UkeySoft M4V Converter
UkeySoft M4V
Converter is also an iTunes DRM removal program with the ability to remove DRM
protection from iTunes M4V movies, TV shows, music and videos. With UkeySoft
M4V Converter, you can convert iTunes M4V Rentals & Purchases Movies to
regular video files. UkeySoft M4V Converter can also keep the 5.1 Dolby
surround sound intact form the original file and provide you an ultimate video
and audio enjoyment. M4V Converter for the M4V converting task, the following
steps are what you need to do.
4.
Audials
Tunebite
Audials
Tunebite is a program that you can use to remove DRM from your iTunes TV shows
or movies and convert them from M4V to MP4 formats. The way how Audials
Tunebite removes the DRM protection is unique. By “re-recoding” DRM protected
files, Audials Tunebite provides a legal way to copy the DRM protected files.
It generates a non-protected version of the file from the original protected file,
without breaking the DRM protection technology, so that you don’t have to worry
about the legal problems.
5. Free
DRM Removal
Free DRM
Removal is a tool that can convert your iTunes videos to normal unprotected
videos free with no function restriction but a time limitation. If your video
is short in length, then this program can totally convert it for free. But if
your video is relatively long, in order to lift the times limitation, you still
have to click the “Upgrade to remove time limitation” entrance and pay for the software.
If you can accept this kind of paying mechanism, then Free DRM Removal could be
of great help for your DRM protected video files.
