Apple encrypts their AAC files with a method they call Fairplay. Unless Sony has also included Fairplay, you won't be able to play iTunes files without some program like Hymn to remove the Fairplay encoding. I've been surprised that Apple's lawyers haven't dropped something hard and heavy on those folks. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
