A bit naughty i know, but i know i can make these protected wma's into mp3
by physically playing the file and recording to mp3 with software. But is
there a way of automatically doing this.

i.e. Software where you can make a playlist of these wma's and have the
player play the list whilst it also uses your soundcard's output to record
direct to mp3 and split the files automatically as it jumps to the next
track. There must be software that can do this, but is there an 'all-in-one'
solution ?

Cheers
Andy

Beats me, don't use them. Try it and see. Basically, if you can play it on
your computer you can record it.

If you can't play them perhaps you could get an ancient Winamp version -
before DRM - and keep the
in_wm.dll to use in your newer Winamp installation. All old versions are
available at Winamp Heaven.
