DRM Dumpster is the best way to convert DRM tracks from your iTunes music library to standard files. DRM Dumpster uses a CD-RW and iTunes itself to convert all of your DRM music files to files that you can use with any music player. With DRM Dumpster you can create MP3, AAC, Apple Lossles, AIFF, or WAV files from your DRM files.

DRM Dumpster uses the iTunes importers and selects the importer that you want to use without changing any of the import settings.

To see or change, for example, the MP3 Import settings do this before running DRM Dumpster:
1. Launch iTunes
2. Open the Preferences
3. Select Advanced
4. Select Importing
5. Select Import Using: MP3

Now you can see or change the settings for the Importing. DRM Dumpster will use your iTunes settings, it does not change them.

Since DRM Dumpster supports any iTunes importer you need to make sure the settings for the importer that you want to use are correct before running DRM Dumpster.

Launch DRM Dumpster
Select the format that you want to import from the popup list
Select the play list that you want to import from the popup list
If you are using a non-English iTunes enter your language equivalent for the word Protected (for example in French use protégé and in German use GeschÃ1/4tzt)
Click the Dump DRM button
Insert a CD-RW

DRM Dumpster does the rest for you. When the operation is complete you will have a new playlist in iTunes that contains the imported files.

If any problems occur during conversion (CD errors, Disk full, etc.) simply correct the problem (get a new CDRW, free up some disk space, etc.) and start DRM Dumpster again to continue from the last point.

Even if you buy more iTunes DRM protected files simply run DRM Dumpster to convert those tool.

Share DRM Music is an audio and music files M4P to MP3 converter. It converts any DRM protected music files (such as M4P, M4A, WMA, M4B) and unprotected music (such as WMA, MP3, rax, MP4, WAV, RA, snd, AAC, OGG, AA, aif) to plain MP3, WAV, WMA formats. Then you can share these converted files on any computers or music devices. Share DRM Music uses a virtual CD burning technology to simulate the burning and ripping/encoding process automatically. With Share DRM Music, you can easily convert protected audio and music files to plain MP3, WAV, WMA formats. ShareDRMusic does not crack DRM control. It bypass DRM control with a virtual CD-RW drive. Fully automatic, ShareDRMusic frees you from the hassles of copy protection without defeating the DRM copy-protection technology used by your audio files. This means it will function with all copy-protection measures, and its completely legal.

Digital Radio Mondiale, also known as DRM, is a new digital radio standard for the long-, medium- and short-wave ranges.

The standard was formed by a consortium in co-operation with the International Telecommunication Union (ITU). The new system offers the radio stations and new service providers access to the multimedia age with small bit rates for large target areas and long distances.

The bandwidth of a DRM bandpass signal is less than 20 kHz and the number of carriers used in the OFDM-modulation is relatively small (max. 460). These features motivate a real-time software implementation of a DRM-receiver on a conventional personal computer (PC) using the sound card as the input and output device. A long, medium and short wave front-end with an intermediate frequency (IF) between 5 kHz and 15 kHz is used to receive the DRM signal.

Any commercial front-end with an IF of 455 kHz should be usable by adding a 455 kHz to 12 kHz adaptor (assumed the receiver bandwidth is sufficient for a DRM signal).

With this software project we intend to implement a working software receiver with, at least, the basic features. Since this project is created at a university and the fundamental idea of such an institution is to teach and stimulate the creativity, this source-code is free under the GNU-General Public License (GPL).

Dream is a development project which uses the open source model to improve DRM technology. The main aim of this project is to implement and test new research results on an existing system, whereby the synchronization and channel estimation is of special interest.

The programming-language is C++. The code runs under Microsoft Windows and Linux. Start of the project was June 2001.

Although this software is going to be distributed as free software under the terms of the GPL this does not mean that its use is free of rights of others. The use may infringe third party IP and thus may not be legal in some countries.

The intended audience of the Dream software are people who are interested in how to decode a DRM stream and want to learn from the algorithms used in this software and people who want to help us improving the performance of the receiver and the source code.
