The music files you purchased from online music stores like iTunes, Yahoo Music or Wal-Mart are under DRM protection. You can not play them on your own mobile devices other than iPod and iPhone. However you can burn the protected music files to CD-R/RW disc to make an audio CD and then use some CD ripper software to convert the audio CD track back to MP3, WAV, WMA, etc.

TuneClone Audio Converter doesn't bypass the DRM. It simulates the Burning, Ripping and Encoding process by installing a virtual CD burner. All you need to do is to burn your playlist with your media player software to TuneClone's virtual CD Burner, and TuneClone will convert music files in the playlist automatically.

The following step by step tutorial is dedicated to instructing music lovers to enjoy M4P WMA music files from iTunes Store on other mobile devices, such as MP3 player, cell phone, Zune, BlackBerry, PSP, Creative Zen, etc., with TuneClone Audio Converter.

Step1. Download TuneClone from TuneClone - M4P to MP3 Converter - Convert M4P,WMA and Any Other Music Format to MP3 via virtual CD Burning and install it.

It is fully compatible with Windows XP and Vista. A virtual CD Burner will be installed. This virtual CD-RW will be used to convert music files.

Step2. Set the default CD Burner to TuneClon CD-RW at iTunes.

Click menu Edit, select menu item Preferences..., and then select Advanced Tab.



In order to keep the artist and title information of the music, the Include CD Text option should be checked.



Step 3. Create a playlist, and then add the files you want to convert into the playlist.



Step 4. Click Burn Disc button at the bottom right of the main screen of iTunes.



While the burning gets started, TuneClone will automatically convert the music file to MP3, WMA or WAV.
You can open the manager screen to show all the converted music files.



The most important step is to choose the cd burner. Then the software can convert the music files automatically. It is exceedingly easy when you want to batch convert lots of files.

This is kinda old news that you can burn DRM music files to remove their protection - but - I enjoyed the highlight that this convertor has a virtual CD-RW drive. This is useful for when you want to convert tracks after a drive failure on a laptop etc...where replacing the drive costs over £200.

There are way too many ways to convert the DRMed files, for example the one I use, Tunebite, can remove the DRM protection and also can convert the files into the right formats as it supports over 60 formats, audio and video. I think it's very useful having such a tool when you buy all your music with that DRM protection.

I still prefer tuneclone. it is a very professional, powerful yet easy to use audio converter program. i am most impressed by its automatically generated virtual cd burner. it dramatically speeds up the conversion process.

It sounded good this tuneclone, but I tried a demo and I'm a bit disappointed cause it only has 3 output formats it it would have been better to be able to also convert video files with it.So this speeded up conversion process doesn't make up for that fact that it does't have more features.
