Download of the Day: DRM Dumpster (Mac)
Mac OS X only: Freeware app DRM Dumpster plugs into your iTunes music library, burns protected tracks to CD-RW, then re-imports them to your hard drive.
This method of turning DRMed iTunes music into free and easy MP3s probably sounds familiar, since it's sort of always been the unofficial-but-accepted way to unDRM your iTunes tracks. The thing that's cool about DRM Dumpster is that, using a rewritable disc, it can automate the process of burning and ripping your entire protected library... all you have to do is insert the disc and start the app. When it fills up a CD, it rips the music, then erases the CD and starts again where it left off.
DRM Dumpster is Mac OS X only freeware (donations are accepted). If you're looking to strip DRM in Windows, other options are available.

this software is retarded - not only does it NOT even recognize protected files… it’s a waste of time! make a smart playlist of AAC files, burn playlist..WTF is so hard about that? sure, you can use a CD-R over and over and again, and i’m assuming all the tags/artwork will remain in tact - or will it? who knows? but none of this matters when the POS doesn’t even see that there are protected files to be converted.
