Musicmatch,Yahoo Music,Walmart shut down DRM servers. How to play their WMA files?


 
The problem I have is that Musicmatch, Yahoo Music, Walmart shut down their DRM servers so there is no way to get access to the license keys again. I am looking for any way to get legally purchased DRM-protected WMA songs to play on anything, Linux or Windows.

I have been searching for the past 2 months but not finding anyway to break the DRM for my personal listening.

The only other thing I can think of doing is install a torrent program and searching for the songs via P2P which will be a last resort and download the songs in mp3 format.

Thanks for your help.

If you have valid licences and can play your DRM protected music from Musicmatch, Yahoo Music, Walmart, you can remove DRM protection from your WMA music files.

You can also try to find SID keys for your DRM-protected WMA files in the Internet (This is not an easy task). If you have SIDs, you can try to play DRM protected WMA files with MPlayer.
