How to convert iTunes movies legally with Tuneskit

As a Windows and Android user, the video format is not a problem. I can download, play movies on my phone and transfer it to my PC or Smart TV with no issues because most of the video formats are cross-platform and no restrictions.

However, for Mac, iPhone, iPad, and other Apple products users, it’s a different story. Apple users need iTunes to play, buy and download music, movies, and TV shows. The problem with this is you can’t play it on other devices that use the different OS or without iTunes on it.

As I have mentioned a while ago I am not an Apple user but since this is sponsored by tuneskit, I did try to use iTunes. In fact, I purchased a movie through it to experience how it works.

iTunes movie and TV shows are DRM protected

iTunes movies and TV shows are copy protected by Apple’s Fairplay DRM technology. What is this DRM? DRM stands for Digital Rights Management which aims to stop or prevent unauthorized redistribution of digital products. In such a way, it puts some restrictions on consumer’s purchased digital media. Thus, digital consumers will find it hard to copy the videos they purchased on other devices except for Apple products.

Although Apple made an iTunes for PC from where you can play all your iTunes purchased movies but still it is limited. You can’t transfer or play it on your other devices without iTunes. This is where Tuneskit DRM Removal Tool plays an important role.

Important note: This software is intended for personal use only!

I am a geek I know where iTunes keep my downloaded movies

Trust me, I tried it several times, as an I.T. professional I know how good Apple is, in terms of protecting their products. Nevertheless, out of curiosity, I tried to access the download folder of iTunes and play it using Windows 10 Movies & TV app, Windows Media Player and even VLC.

The result? Well, as expected it turned out unplayable. VLC almost got all the video codecs but it failed to play iTunes movie. On the other hand, movies & TV app by Windows 10 was able to play it, but it will play frame by frame. It means you have to press the play button for every frame because it freezes. Nobody will watch movies like that and that’s how good Apple’s DRM protection!

But don’t lose hope! Tuneskit will make your Digital life easier. One of the best DRM removal tool that will not just remove the DRM but also convert your iTunes movies to your desired video format losslessly.

You need to install iTunes for Windows which is available for download in https://www.apple.com/ph/itunes/download/ and Tuneskit M4V Converter.

Once downloaded, install iTunes first then the Tuneskit M4V converter. In my case, I purchased a movie. All purchased movies will appear in your iTunes Movies library as shown in the image below.

Now, start the Tuneskit M4V converter, if it is your first time to open Tuneskit you may see a dialog box, prompting you to check the “share iTunes library xml“. You can ignore it because by clicking the Library in Tuneskit M4V converter, it will automatically detect the movies and TV shows in your iTunes library.

However, if you would like to get rid of the prompt message just click the “don’t show this message again” or follow the instruction and check the “share iTunes library XML”.
