Uhh, that'd be Apple Records.. They belong to that obscure band, the Beatles.... :)

So does that mean Michael Jackson now owns Apple Records?   :D

Tailgunner:
I just read the same guy who cracked the DVD encryption system has cracked Apple's DRM.

StephenH:
Apples DRM is easily crackable.  You do not even need hacker tools!   Here is the procedure:

You need the following:

1) One or more DRM protected AAC Files on a computer that they are licensed to be used on.

2) A Blank CD-R

3) iTunes Software

4) MusicMatch or any program that can rip WAV files from CD.


The procedure:

1) If you haven't already, buy some songs from the iTunes Music Store.

2) Burn them to Audio CD

3) Rip back as a WAV (no quality loss) or MP3 (some quality loss) using MusicMatch or other file.

The rip-backed files can be played on non-iPod players, moved to other computers unlimited times, and even shared over KaZaa or Limewire.

saint:
Ripping for your own personal use is one thing. Sharing over Kazaa or Limewire of course would be patently illegal and subject you to fines and possible prosecution.
