Part 1: About iTunes Movies and DRM <\/h2>\n
Before we start talking about how to remove DRM on iTunes movie files, let’s get to know the two key elements here, the iTunes movies, and the DRM. If you have been using Apple’s products for some time, you mush be familiar with the media center program iTunes. iTunes is somewhere the Apple users can purchase, view or rent media content like movie, music, eBook and more. The movies you purchase and download from iTunes are iTunes movies. Because of the DRM, iTunes movies are usually saved in an unusual file name extension, preventing you from moving them or viewing them from devices or platforms other than iTunes itself.\u00a0 <\/p>\n
DRM is an encryption method called Digital Rights Management. With DRM, every digital product you purchase or rent from iTunes or similar platforms are protected and cannot be moved, viewed or edited by any means. DRM is not actually welcomed by everyone. Although it protects the copyright of publishers and developers, some people still think that as a customer, we should also have the right to do whatever we want to a digital product after paying for it. Because of the controversial nature of DRM, it’s not protected by the law in many countries and regions around the world. As long as it’s not against the local law, you can choose to remove the DRM protection with some DRM removal programs and make your iTunes movies the regular movie files so that you can have full access to the files. After that, you can freely do operations like playing iTunes DRM movies in VLC<\/a>, editing iTunes DRM movies with Premiere Pro, transfer the movies to other devices and anything else you want. <\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\nPart 3: Remove DRM from iTunes Movies losslessly with DRmare M4V Converter<\/h2>\n
DRmare M4V Converter is another DRM removal program that you can use to convert your iTunes movies. The program is capable of removing DRM copyright encryption from rented and purchased iTunes movies, TV episodes and music videos by converting the protected M4V video files to lossless M4V and MP4 with 1:1 ratio. Although DRmare M4V Converter is not as powerful as Leawo Prof. DRM and can only convert video files in the “M4V” file extension, it is mostly enough if you only need to convert video files or movies because most of the video products in iTunes are saved in the M4V file format. Because the function of the program is quite simple, it’s really easy to use DRmare M4V Converter to remove DRM encryptions on your media files. Here is how:<\/p>\n
Step 1: <\/strong>Launch iTunes, login and authorize the current device to access the iTunes content.

Besides the two programs introduced above, there is another product that you can also try when you need to remove DRM from an iTunes movie. The product’s name is pretty straightforward: Free DRM Removal. Just as the name indicates, Free DRM Removal is a free program for users to remove DRM protections from media files they purchase or rent. With Free DRM Removal, you can convert DRM protected M4V videos from both iTunes purchases and rentals to lossless standard MP4 file at a relatively high speed. However, because Free DRM Removal is a free program, the stability cannot be assured when the program is doing converting tasks, and the updates from the developers are released not quite often. If you need some iTunes movie that needed to be converted but don’t want to spend a penny on it, Free DRM Removal is definitely something worth trying. To use Free DRM Removal to convert an iTunes movie, just follow the instructions below. <\/p>\n
Step 1: <\/strong>Download and install Free DRM Removal.
\n Step 2: <\/strong>Launch the program. On the main interface of the program, click “iTunes Media” to import media files from iTunes. You have to make sure you have logged in your iTunes first.
\nStep 3: <\/strong>After your media are imported, set an output directory in the “Output” box to save your output file, and then click the “Convert” button to start converting your iTunes movie to a regular movie without DRM protection.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/div>\nPart 5: Comparison of three DRM tools<\/h2>\n
In today’s article, we introduced three DRM removal tools for you to convert your encrypted iTunes movies so that they can be moved, viewed or edited freely. Among the three programs, Leawo Prof DRM is definitely the most recommendable one because of its rich functionality and ease of use. DRmare M4V Converter is also worth trying for the simple design and nice user interface. If you don’t have a lot of budget, Free DRM Removal is always there for you, but be prepared to accept some restrictions and flaws that are inevitable in free programs. To have a better idea on how these three programs differ each other, take a look at the following comparison and I’m sure you can pick the best tool for yourself.<\/p>\n
