I can listen to them on media player and winamp but I have been using iTunes for ages now and the damm thing wont play them. Now my cd is in Sydney which is 7hrs away at a friends home so I can t re re rip the songs.
Im not even sure if I can burn them onto a cd and then rip them off without the protection?
So can I remove the protection so it will play on iTunes?

The protection scheme you are talking about probably has something to do with the media format you selected.

It's the best ripper there is, and it rips without any "protection"... Not to mention it's free... AND supports VBR lol... | | | | | Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 384 Member | | Member Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 384 | I know, but that requires downloading stuff. Most people rip with iTunes and WMP because it's all they know. Thanks Apple and Microsoft.

Though Sun is working on an Open DRM project that could make life a little easier. The most basic issues about DRM could be resolved if every manufacturer used the same damn scheme. Also a much easier method of keeping track of licenses would be great too.
