03/25/2005 05:12 PMNewsFactor - The escalating battle between the Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL)
iTunes music-download service and those who would circumvent the
digital rights management (DRM) system that protects downloaded songs
from piracy took several interesting turns this week. One outcome that
seems increasingly likely is that the music-download business may be
leaving the era in which illegal copying is its worst concern.

Jeremy says,
DVD Jon has created
a program which bypasses the DRM stage of the downloading process when
purchasing songs from iTunes. One still pays for the tracks, and
FairPlay is not included.

page, and
Link to Jon
Johansen's blog.
Here's a snip from
The Register's story:
PyMusique [is] a Python-based utility that offers a "fair interface to
the iTunes Music Store", co-written with Travis Watkins and Cody
Brocious. The app provides the usual ITMS features - access to song
previews and the ability to set up a payment account and to use it to
buy songs - but there are two crucial differences.
First, PyMusique allows you to re-download songs you've purchased. So
if your hard drive goes up the Suwannee and you haven't backed it up
for a while, you can re-acquire your ITMS-sourced song library.
Second, none of the tracks you download will be encumbered with DRM.
Of course, it's of very questionable legality. Quite apart from
potentially bypassing Apple's FairPlay copy protection system - a
no-no according to Europe's European Union Copyright Directive (EUCD)
- running the software infringes the terms and conditions ITMS user
agree to abide by when they set up an account.

03/19/2005 03:27 AMJon Johansen, also known as DVD Jon, has once again attacked Apple's
method of protecting iTunes bought from the Music Store. The
Norwegian programmer famous for breaking the encryption software that
protected and localized DVDs, has found a way of buying digital rights
management-free tracks using his PyMusique application. Since the
iTunes Music Store adds the digital rights management tag after a
track has been bought and downloaded, Johansen has devised a front-end
that, according to engadget, "conveniently neglects to wrap the file
with any copy protection."

security hole" in the iTunes Music Store that allowed users to
purchase songs without DRM attached. As a result of closing the hole,
users of iTunes older than version 4.7 will need to upgrade in order
to continue purchasing songs. This update also locks out users of
PyMusique, a software application for Windows and Linux that served as
an alternate interface to the iTunes Music Store.

05/05/2004 12:29 PMApple said Wednesday that its iTunes Music Store set a new download
record of 3.3 million songs in the week since the third-generation
store was introduced. 500,000 of those downloads came in the form of
free songs from popular commercial artists made available as part of a
"Free Song of the Day" promotion to celebrate the store's one-year
anniversary. Last week Apple said the iTunes Music Store currently
sells 2.7 million songs per week. Subtracting the free songs, this
suggests that the store's weekly business may have been slightly more
brisk than usual.
