How to Remove DRM (Digital Rights Management) From iTunes Music, Movies and Audiobooks The latest version of iTunes is version 12 and with it comes new types of files, file encryption, and DRM protected media. Let's look at some of these new types of files as well as solutions that will allow you to remove the DRM protection so that you can enjoy your iTunes movies and music on any device. REMOVE DRM FROM AAC: (Advanced Audio Coding) AAC is an audio file format commonly used in audiobooks, iBooks and extended length audio files. While most computers and portable devices are fully functional with AAC there are still many countries offering MP3 players and smartphones that cannot support the file format, for this reason many iTunes customers will opt to convert AAC to MP3 using software like that available from drmstomper. This will allow users to convert their Audible Audiobooks, iBooks and even Amazon audio files to an open source MP3 file that can be played on any device for free.
REMOVE DRM FROM AIFF: (Audio Interchange File Format) Probably the most popular audio file format being served by Apple, and the bane of Mac users everywhere is the AIFF file format. A typically heavy file format with with near loss-less compression; the AIFF can cause compatibility issues on many popular devices. To convert AIFF to MP3 is a fairly simple process but will be slightly different depending on whether users will be converting AIFF to MP3 on the Mac, or will be using an AIFF to MP3 file converter for PC. some non-protected AIFF files can be converted to MP3 right within the iTunes dashboard. To convert your non DRM protected AIFF files simply follow the steps below:
1) Open iTunes 2) Select Edit/Preferences/iTunes/Preferences and click the "General" button followed by the "Importing Settings" button. 3) Choose a song or audio file from your iTunes libary followed by "File/Create New Version". 4) You'll have 5 file formats to choose from MP3, AAC, AIFF, WAV and Apple Lossless file format. Converting to MP3 is recommended. If you don't see the audio file or songs you'd like to convert go ahead and import the media as normal and the converted copy will appear in your iTunes library.

REMOVING DRM FROM GOOGLE PLAY MUSIC: (CONVERT OGG TO MP3) OGG files are commonly used by Google Play as well as AAC files. As the free AAC to MP3 file converted was covered above, we'll focus solely on converting OGG files to MP3. OGG was originally intended as an open, free audio file format designed for unrestricted use. Since then however many media provider have applied DRM protection to OGG files which severely limit the user experience and functionality.
