Sonos will apparently support 'Microsoft DRMÂ’d music' (http://www.techcrunch.com/2007/01/08/sonos-now-plays-microsoft-drmd-songs/) - not that I would buy *EVIL* music files. -- TCM http://www.last.fm/user/ThisCharmingMan/ TCM's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=702 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18177 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

I've used the wmp plugin below to get round DRM before now. It captures wmp output directly to WAV file, which it does direct from file quite fast. The resulting WAVs were 700-900kbps so everything seems to be preserved, except for the DRM bit. So if wmp can play it, you can capture for slimserver use. http://www.chronotron.com/content.php?page=downloads get the "Free Software" - WAV Output plug-in for Windows Media Player -- parrydave parrydave's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=6079 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18177 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

If it's actually stripping the DRM then sound-quality wise you're ok, but if it's transcoding back to a lossy format or doing something along the lines of what Boywonder suggests then you're losing sound quality. -- azinck3 azinck3's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3967 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18177 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

I've tried soundtaxi. It converts well on the DRM from musicmatch. I converted with no problem and the songs play well on slimp3. Files from Itunes seem to skip. I've now tried to convert with a lower level quality and some of them seem to convert fine but not all of them. It's not a bad deal. -- LULU LULU's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9163 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18177 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

There is an easy way to convert WMA/WMA-DRM to MP3, it can be fairly time consuming if you've got lots of files but it works. And do you know the best part? All you need is Windows Media Player (WMP). Simply burn all your WMA or WMA-DRM files to a CD-RW using WMP, then rip them back off using WMP ensuring you are ripping them as MP3 format (Tools > Options > Rip Music Tab). And that's all the licence stuff gone, no protection... just a plain honest-to-god MP3. Erase the disk, then off you go again.

Does anyone know anything about Ramka's SoundTaxi http://www.soundtaxi.info/english/index.php ? They say that "SoundTaxi can convert any file that can be played in MediaPlayer 9 or 10."

I can't (muster the energy to) find the link, but Sean Adams (Slim Deveces CEO) recently stated on another forum something to the effect that folks should stay tuned for an announcement regarding WMA DRM support.
