Quick question, my sister bought a $25 itunes gift card the other day and downloaded some songs so she could put on her MP3 player (not ipod). She dragged the songs over to her MP3 player and it shows them, however the player does not play them. Is itunes really that strict? Is it possible for her to play the songs she has onto MP3 player. Edit: I realized that the file format for Itunes is a "Mpeg-4 Protected" and not .MP3, Whats her possibilities. I know there are "cracks" but I want to avoid them unless needed for sure. Thank you
I'm not certain if she'll be able to play them. iTunes likes to coat their stuff with some DRM bullshit. I think you're better off downloading some software and just removing the protection thing off the files.
She won't be able to play them unless she's got an iPod. If you want to do all the hard work, instead of getting a scary program you can burn the music to a disk and then reimport it into iTunes as an MP3. But you would have to set iTunes to import MP3s and not AACs and you would waste a cd/dvd.
I am staying far away from downloading music/movies/games for a while. My neighbor received a sipeena (sp) in the mail a few weeks backs setting a court date because his son was caught downloading songs illegally (limewire is my guess) BTW I figured it out, burn them to a cd, import them back.
yeah, my friends sister got fined 1000 dollars for downloading songs illegally. I don't see how they only catch some random peopel though..
They set out fake files, so when you download them it tracks it. Well to the best of my knowledge. They usually use chart music for it. I'm lucky, I don't think someone from Virgin Media is going to sit down and say "Well I think we should put a tracker on a Dimmu Borgir track"
