Buying music from iTunes
Jo had a good experience buying music from iTunes, painless and easy. But we were surprised that it wasn't MP3, it was M4P. It's no good right? Does it mean only iPod and iTunes can play it?

hello,
i recently bought some music from the itunes store (since australia has it). apparantly the mp4 is not recognised on my creative zen player as a music file, but as a data file, i.e. not found on the creative music play list. itunes also does't allow the mp4 music from the store to be converted into mp3 because it is a protected file.

Hi Wes,
I'm afraid that's the case. All because of DRM issues created by the music labels.
The only solution to that is for you to burn the MP4 into a music CD and then re-import into iTunes as MP3. Then it can be played on any device. But it would also mean you'll have to copies of the same song in iTunes.
Am not sure if there are any software to 'overcome' this restriction.

yups. N has stopped buying from iTunes becos of this.
Last year, there were also some people standing outside the Apple store on Regent St. giving out leaflets about the DRM issue. Something about them having control over things we've apparently purchased and should therefore own...?
