iTunes 6 DRM cracked
This post was published 3 years 2 months 10 days ago and its content may not be valid anymore.Assuming you know how to get busy with Python, it seems that iTunes 6 has now been cracked with the help of QTFairUse for iTunes 6.0.4-6.0.5.
- Start iTunes
- Start QTFairUse6.py.
- Play your protected track(s) in iTunes. Each track will be written into a separate dump_NN.aac file.
- To make them playable in winamp, convert the raw streams to ADTS using FAAD:
faad.exe -a output.aac dump_NN.aac
Wade through the discussions and snag the download on the QTFairUse forums [via] and report back with your own results. I’d play with Python, but alas, I own no iTunes Music Store locked files.
FYI – This is for Windows only!
S—! This is awesome! I gotta try this out!
Just tried it on my gf’s windows machine last night. Worked pretty well, but the output wasn’t playable in itunes, quicktime, or VLC. I had to “fink install faad” to get a decoder, and that was a bit annoying…but a quick “faad -w dump_01.aac | lame -h –alt-preset 192 – song.mp3″ made things all better.
Ok, I’m a jock, and I have purchased iTunes 6.0 music on my computer. That means I have no idea what you are talking about. If anyone could help me, it would be greatly appreciated.
Jordan, it is took geeky even for me!
