drm removal from dcf. extension files

So far the solution is to buy DRM-free music files.

You can always download MP3 music files from say eMusic, then trim them with a free software like MP3DirectCut and transfer them to your mobile phone.

You may also choose content providers that provide DRM-free ringtones. In many cases you will pay the same or comparable price compared to the tunes bought in a music download service so probably there is no sense to do that.

Thanks for the reply Stream.
I will watch this thread.
It's just disappointing. I go to all this trouble to buy legal music can't play them.
The only method I have found that works is to just record them from my sound card. Hardly a solution

Many companies have realized that implementing DRM was a big mistake. It only complicates the content usage for the legal purchasers. And it can't stop pirates from spreading the content.

You may have seen that iTunes started selling DRM-free music lately. This music is a little bit more expensive, but it is of a better quality. Also gBox launched recently is going to sell DRM-free music. I think it is only the beginning of the wave.

Just don't support content providers that use DRM unless it is something like Yahoo! Music Unlimited that provides you access to the unlimited number of songs for a small monthly fee.

Thanks again for the helpful posts.
I don't mind paying a small fee to get unlimited songs. I might have to try Yahoo. The reason I still pay for it from the other site is that they have a bunch of Korean songs which I listen to regularly. Oh well.

Hi There, not sure if I should be starting a new thread for this query but does anyone know if the chillkat dll can be used to strip the DRM from a .gif file encoded in a .dcf file?

The code as shown does not work for this and crashes out saying "This application has requested the Runtime to terminate in an unusual way" when it gets to the line whioch should open the file.

Any help out there?

Thanks

Hello, everyone could build and run the code in question and my question now is: How do I run it returns me messages with the following information: Video/Mp4; cid: Matrix_PortugueseSub@Nokia.com; Encrypition_Metod: AES128CBC; Padinger: RFC 2630; Content -Name: Transformers iv: 5c57175c461e8750038c268adefd1411.
It also generates a file (out.gif), but with size (0) KB.
I wonder what I can do with this information displayed in the execution because they thought that would be generated a new movie file with no protection.
Can anyone help me?

clearly we have found the music we paid for is locked up by the seller or middle man so we can only access it via our mobile phone. I only paid 2 x $5 for 2 x video hits, and wanted to play them on speakers off my pc, not my headphones. Clearly we have all lost our money and learned a valuable lesson ! if that mobile phone suite is bigger than windows operating system itself "dont use it" it is not for our purposes, but for Nokia, Sony Errickson and alike, it is only designed to cheat us>

Secondly, I am amazed how resourceful many here are, and I also googled "wtf drm" and ended up doing alike "dumb things". We have all been cheated by the system, and while I spent endless hours trying to resolve this, my neighbour laughed and in 10 minutes had downloaded pirate copies from limewire? or something!! I own that music, paid $10 and the pirates of technology picked my pocket, now my neighbour is my new friend and I have the full albums and can play the music I purchased on my iPod! my ipod and the sound is 10 times better than what i paid for, to hear on my mobile with 50 cent earpods.

Finally, we got ripped off by the system, the system is wrong, liars, cheats and blaggards, we deserve better "fight back" learn, dont let this happen to you, dont give them the opportunity to cheat you. recently itunes has finally freed up their restrictive policy so you can download tunes to your pc not just your ipod, you can chose to have itunes on your mobile device, remember "use itunes" and trust no one else , the big companies are prostiutes, except with real prostitutes "when you pay, you get screwed in a nice way"
