Why DRM Removal Software Is The Best Answer for Protected Files

By Trent Yaques


Most of the legally downloaded media files you get now can only play one computer or on a specific number of computers. This is because all download services are using what is call Digital Rights Management or what is also known in the industry as DRM. This sort of protection is used to put a halt to piracy and prevent unauthorized file sharing.

The way these companies limit your access to your own files is using special software on your computer that will unlock the files and give limited access. This will work as long as you are paying your monthly service fees. Although you have virtually paid for the file, it is impossible to use the file as you normally would if it was really all yours to keep. Some of the limitations you will see are not being able to move the file freely from one computer or device to another or even burn these files to a CD.

The best way to combat these restrictions is to use special DRM removal software that will remove these restrictions. It does this by converting the protected formatted files into an unprotected format that is suitable to playback on any computer or device. There are many choices for converting one file to another but only a very limited number will actually convert DRM protected files to other formats like MP3, MP4 or AVI.

This might bring up the question of being legal. Software like this has been on the market for the past 5 years and by law you can backup all your digital media that you have legally purchased. So if you have downloaded book from Audible or music from Rhapsody then you convert those file to other formats legally.

You can find some very long drawn out instructions that have you download old outdate files that may or may not assist you in converting protected formatted files. This is because the DRM technology used changes often making most of these file hacks useless in a very short time. Using specialized software such as Tunebite you can convert all your protected files quickly and effortlessly and it will stay updated with all industry software changes.

Aside from allowing to make an unlimited number of copies of all your digital media files, drm removal software like Tunebite can save you a lot of money. In almost all cases, you will have to spend more money in addition to your monthly subscription fee to get unprotected formatted files. Services like Napster and Rhapsody my charge additional fees to authorize more play-back devices like your iPod. You will never have to pay those extra fees when you use Tunebite.
