remove copy protection on Itunes?

[speakeasy]

Hey, does anyone know if there's a crack that allows you to listen to itunes bought mp3s on a player other than an ipod? Or even be able to listen using winamp instead of itunes? Itunes used to be good but it's not just a piece of bloatware and takes a long as time just to open up.

Thanks, I'll take a look.

Cracking iTunes would be wrong, however the fact that you can burn CDs from the iTunes software (so I hear) should then in theory allow you to do anything with those CDs you'd be able to do with any other CD.

Why is it wrong? I just have a different mp3 player than Ipod. I feel like I bought them legally, can't understand why I'm not allowed to listen to them on another player.

Should have read the iTunes disclaimer besides, Apple is notorious for the propriotory nature of their products. Don't expect them to play as easily with non-Apple products such the ways that PCs do.

Defeating the copy protection is a violation of the DMCA, but using the software as intended (including CD export) to listen to music in a legal way is not likely to land you in hot water. IANAL.
