DESCRIPTION
DRM Dumpster is the automatic way to convert DRM tracks from your iTunes music library to standard music files. Simply set up your Mac, launch DRM Dumpster, click the Dump DRM button, insert a single CD-RW and the process runs automatically and unattended.

DRM Dumpster uses a CD-RW and iTunes itself to convert all of the DRM music files in your Library (or in a user selectable play list) to standard music files (MP3, AAC, Apple Lossless, AIFF, WAV) that you can use with any music player. Using a standard CD-RW ensures maximum compatibility because DRM Dumpster does not need to install any third party driver software - and that is a good thing.

  • Improves speed on large libraries and playlists
  • Removes advertising and sponsor lins when registered
  • New icon
REQUIREMENTS

    HIPAULIEE  Hey if you guys really want something fast and easy... look up Requiem. its a 400 kb SCRIPT that does the same thing and quite efficiently. It will most likely be a torrent file though considering the guy that made it is super sketchy/afraid he will be "caught" hah. cheers  (Version 3.0)

    CHAOTICPIXEL  First of all, I was very skeptical about this software (every other software I tried failed to "unprotect" songs correctly), but after trying the free demo, I was SOLD! The demo converted 30 Protected AAC files perfectly. It carried over my tags, all the comments, and my ratings!

    And yes, you could do this the manual way if you are not willing to pay $25 (on sale at the moment), but who in their right mind wants to waste an entire day going through that process. I would rather pay the $25, go mountain biking, watch a movie or whatever I want to and come back to a perfectly converted library.

    Pros: completely automatic, good audio format choices, free demo that works, simple to use (just READ the readme file before proceeding) and is perfectly legal (like anyone cares, right?).

    Cons: ugly icon, uses quite a bit of CPU power and kind of slow (speed limited to CD writer and CD-RW used)

    Suggestions: audio adjustment would be great (volume adjustment and/or EQ adjustments) when burned and imported, if possible. And, maybe a pause and resume button, if possible.

    Thanks for a program that works!  (Version 2.1.9)

    BURNINGTHUMB  As a bit of information for everyone, for small libraries (< 30 protected tracks) DRM Dumpster for Mac OS X is FREE to use. Simply use the demo mode.

    In addition, if you cannot afford the license fee please contact us directly to work something else out. While we need funds to ensure development continues, we are very flexible with respect to individual circumstances.

    As I have indicated in the past, the best thing to do for all issue is to not hesitate to contact us directly.  (Version 2.1.9)
