the zune game has stopped working, unfortunately
A new software version (zune client v4.8) has been released and since then neither v4.7 nor v4.8 keep the inbox.key version 11.0.5497.6285.
WMP10 + Windows Media Runtime 11 Final (as suggested in the old instructions) + zune 4.7 are
good for some minutes after which the key is automatically updated to 11.0.6001.8015. this is strange, and new.
FairUse4WM should have problems with this high version number (and placebo's screenshots demonstrate zune undrming for 11.0.5497.6285).
I know that Windows Media Runtime 11 Beta 1 (contains fully crippled DRM-component lol), 11 Beta 2 und 11 Beta 3 do not update the key, since the individualization webpage returns a webpage error .. but my subscription month has run out so that i cant test what happens when you try to play (in zune gui) a 192 WMA song, download a 192 WMA song (from zune gui), or, if both succeeded so far, even strip off the DRM-protection.
zune 4.7 and 4.8 run both with *any* WM Runtime 11.x-version (11b1, 11b2, 11b3, 11final) and they dont run with any (high) 10.x-version (e.g. wmvcore.dll v10.00.00.4078, that's the highest you can get for Runtime 10). since wmp10+wmr11final+zune4.7, as of recent, update the key, the only possible setups left are:
wmp10+wmr11b1+zune4.7,
wmp10+wmr11b2+zune4.7,
wmp10+wmr11b3+zune4.7, or
wmp10+wmr11final+zune4.7+much luck with the
short time (Download 2 songs and generate some blackbox keys with FU4WM!!) and or with the high version number. Once you have some FU4WM-generated keys (for the low key version), they
seem to work even for songs which were downloaded at some later point (with the updated higher key version). placebo posted in the napster thread that he/she had been undrming songs without problems although the key version was high and he had Runtime11final or WMP11betaX installed. Anyway, i am just saying that the zune game has pretty much closed AFAIK.
Anyone here with a current subscription (or with current success re the DRM removal)?
