Part1: What’s DRM and Why do We Need to Remove DRM
What’s DRM?
Digital rights management (DRM) is a set of access control technologies for restricting the use of proprietary hardware and copyrighted works. DRM technologies try to control the use, modification, and distribution of copyrighted works (such as software and multimedia content), as well as systems within devices that enforce these policies.
Why do We Need to Remove DRM?
When you download or purchase videos or music from iTunes store, you are only able to play the videos or music on your Apple products. But you can’t copy it, share it with others, and convert it to other formats for playing on more devices. It’s really annoying. Why not find a tool to remove DRM and rip M4V videos to BD/ ISO?
