Remove DRM from itunes songs - No Password

[scottthorton]

I have a small restaurant. We have a dedicated hard drive with about 300 songs paid for by me but purchased by our then general manager. Needless to say, he quit, taking his lap top with him. As he used his iTunes account to purchase the music, we cannot play any of the songs as the are asking for his password. (He is not welcome anymore nor is he terribly cooperative). Is there a program we can use allow us to play the music? We tried some software that essentially burns the music to another hard drive but we still need his password to to do this as it apparently just rerecords the songs, but as we have no ability to even play them, are we out of luck. Any help?
