hey, i was considering getting this for a month and i was wondering if there is any way to get around the protection they have. (such as how napster to go was cracked within 2 weeks) so i can burn them to cds or transfer them to my zen micro. thanks alot!
Directly from the page, "The Yahoo! Music Unlimited service utilizes Windows Media DRM (digital right management), which requires you to use a subscription-compatible Windows Media device if you want to take subscription music to go. " I remember napster-to-go and how you could use the computers sound card to capture the mp3's. any chance of the same deal going on here? What software could i use?
so it sounds like they use protected wma files. i'm sure you could always just capture them via the analog output of your soundcard, I'm not sure if someone has developed software to crack the DRM of wma, I'll do some searching
hey dj, did some searching on google, and found a couple software that work great, i am using "tunebite" which is cool because it uses digital dubbing at 4x so it doesnt take a year to get my music encoded (it uses the sound card to capture) do you know of any software that might work any better?
no I couldn't find any, I searched briefly. Other than those crappy all-in-one programs that cost like $50 and claim to do everything. ideally it would be nice to use a program that can decode and encode the audio without having to do it via the analog sound card, but as long as you have a decent sound card the results should be okay. and since its technically illegal to convert DRM music, it will be hard to find one. how does the captured audio sound? I'll try and find that app and check it out.
to be honost i can not tell a difference, but you, being a audio freak may notice haha. just be sure not to be doing anything while its working your music(at least not during digital dubbing) or youll get some skips.
lol,its not "tuna" but "tune" you can find it on any bit-torrent or p2p, or you can get it from http://www.download3000.com/download_6795.html for $17.99 they have a free trial but i belive you get a voice every 5 seconds if its not purchased
