Requiem 4.1 - Remove iTunes DRM (FairPlay) from music, video and books
Description
Requiem is a program that removes Apple's DRM (called FairPlay) from songs, videos, and books purchased on iTunes, This allows content purchased on iTunes to be played on non-Apple-approved devices, like a SlimServer or Linux box. The DRM removal is a lossless process, it is merely decrypting the file, not decoding and re-encoding it, meaning no quality is lost when the DRM is removed.
Requiem must be run on a computer that are currently authorized to play the DRM'd music or video.
Download:
Old Downloads:
- Apparently works better for Ebooks.
How to use:
Double-click on the Requiem application and watch it work!
It will automatically find DRMed files in your iTunes library and remove the DRM from them.
The original DRMed files will be moved to the trash. Make sure you verify that the songs and videos still work before emptying the trash.
Windows users will need to install Java.
You can also drag & drop files or directories (which will be searched recursively) onto the Requiem application or the Requiem window.
Starting Requiem with the shift key down will disable scanning of the iTunes library. You can use this feature to start requiem with a blank window into which you can drag & drop files to be processed.
How it works:
Requiem decrypts the audio and video data in your file exactly like iTunes does:
1. Requiem authenticates with the DRM library using the secret credentials used by iTunes.
2. Requiem uses the decrypt routines in the DRM library to decrypt all of the audio and video data.
Changes:
There is no longer a key cache.
Warning:
This program is not intended to promote piracy. I just wanted to play my iTunes songs on a SlimServer! As such, the output file is only minimally modified to remove the DRM. It still has lots of information in it identifying you.
Command Line:
You can run Requiem a bunch of different ways from the command line (Mac examples):
run it as usual:
java -cp Requiem.app/Contents/Resources/Java/Requiem.jar Requiem
deDRM a single file:
java -cp Requiem.app/Contents/Resources/Java/Requiem.jar UnDrm
