walmart music downloads mp3 players
will an itunes movie play on this mp3 player?
i am looking at an mp3/video player from walmart, and i was wondering if movies or music purchased on itunes would be compatable with it.
these are the file types supported by the player. are any of these the same as an itunes file?
WMA, ASF, MPEG 1 Audio, MPEG 2 Audio, MPEG 2.5 Audio, Ogg Vorbis, MP3, FLAC
if not, it there a website or download similar to itunes that sells video, and supports this mp3 player?
iRiver 8GB MP3 Video Player, White
Basically, when you buy music from iTunes, it comes with a copyright protection called DRM. These DRM-protected songs are locked so that they only work with Apple MP3 players. That means that if you bought a Microsoft Zune, you cannot use iTunes music.
So, what is the solution? You have to burn a CD. When you do this, the DRM is removed (because the music is converted to a non-DRM-compatible media). After you burn the CD, you can rip it to your PC as an MP3 file which no longer has DRM.
Alternatively, you can use TuneClone. TuneClone makes a virtual CD-ROM drive, tricking your PC into believing that you are burning a CD. Therefore, the DRM is removed without wasting a CD.
Here is a link to a tutorial using TuneClone and iTunes 8:
