How to play iTunes protected AAC (M4P) music on PS3?  terry007 06:12:25 |
| | "Can I play iTunes (that I have stored on my computer) on my PS3? I know I can't just hook up my iPod to it or stream from my PC. I read something about transferring music to USB and then put that flash drive in the PS3, will this work? I want to play my iTunes on my home theater but I have no other way than to play it through my PS3. I have a yamaha 5990 receiver and it is not iPod compatible. Any options here? Thanks in advance."
As the music in iTunes is encrypted with DRM, you cannot directly transfer it to your PS3. The easiest way is to burn the music to an audio CD and then rip it back to Windows Media Player or a similar program as an MP3.
Or you can get some software to help you. TuneClone is a pretty good program to get the iTunes protected AAC (M4P) music burned to MP3.
And this page demonstrates how to remove DRM from iTunes music and convert iTunes DRM protected AAC (M4P) music to MP3 for Sony PlayStation 3(PS3) using these two methods:
1. Burn an audio CD and rip it back to MP3
2. TuneClone
And below is the tutorial page:

So now you can listen to iTunes music while playing games with your PS3.

| Updated: How to convert iTunes protected AAC(M4P) to MP3(using iTunes 8) terry007 06:35:32 |
| | More than two months ago, I wrote a tutorial entitled How to Convert iTunes M4P to MP3(http://m4ptomp3.qaix.com/0-395-how-to-strip-drm-off-itunes-m4p-music-to-mp3-wma.zhtml). In that post, I introduced two ways to convert iTunes M4P(protected AAC) music to MP3: burning and ripping CD disc and using TuneClone(http://www.tuneclone.com). With the release of Apple genius iTunes 8, the second method of converting iTunes M4P(protected AAC) music to MP3 with TuneClone isn't applicable, as there's some difference between iTunes 8 and its previous version. So, I'd like to post the step by step tutorial about how to convert iTunes 8 protected AAC or say M4P music to MP3 with TuneClone below:
1. Download TuneClone and install it.
TuneClone is fully compatible with Windows XP and Windows Vista. A virtual CD Burner will be installed. This virtual CD-RW will be used to convert music files.
2. Make settings at TuneClone
Click the Settings button at TuneClone. In the pop-up window, you can specify the output folder, output filenames, output format, etc. for the output files.
Note: Apart from MP3, TuneClone also allows you to convert iTunes M4P to WAV and unprotected WMA.
Tip: You can get the output protection removed music folder by clicking the Folder button after the whole process.
3. Make settings at iTunes
Create a playlist, and then add the files you want to convert into the playlist.
After you have created the playlist ready to be burnt, click the Burn Disc in the bottom right of iTunes.
In the pop up window of Burn Settings, make the settings as highlighted below:
4. Start to burn
Click the Burn button to start burning.
After 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.
