So basically, I'm looking to transfer files from an iPod I acquired to my computer. The problem is, because of the DRM, I cannot play anything through iTunes or anything so no program (i.e. Soundtaxi and Tunebite) will work.

I'm currently working with M4V files, and don't even know if the whole rip/burn technique will work (besides the fact that I don't have a DVD burner...)

Any help is greatly appreciated.
