I burnt a dvd of WMAs I downloaded from Napster using Nero. I then proceeded to make a copy of that DVD in hopes that "ANY DVD" just might eliminate the DRM encoding. Unfortunately it did not. However, the copy I made when opened in "My Computer" listed all the tracks as NOT being protected! When I tried to open one of the tracks in Sony's Sound Forge to edit it, it told me it was protected. I don't know if this means anything, but is it possible that by using this process we CAN remove the DRM? Obviously there seems to be 1 crutial step missing. I did get the computer to list the tracks as NOT being protected...is it possible I am an the verge of something here?
If anyone knows anything further to this, please let me know. I'd be glad to hear from you. Also, and I know it's probably pointless to ask, but has there been any break throughs in cracking this EVIL DRM? I am aware of playing the track & recording it in real time. But I mean a conversion process or batch convertor that will do it NOT in real time?
