It is now rarely used or mentioned in the tech world but instead, Requiem alternatives are frequently met. Requiem serves as a DRM removal tool for so many years and now it fails to work for iTunes higher than V10.7. Therefore, Requiem alternatives that are able to continue the service of DRM removal become popular and familiar to all. With the desire to help people remove DRM using the best DRM removal tools, top 5 alternatives to Requiem are introduced here.<\/p>\n<div class=\"anchor-list-dark\">\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"#Part1\"><b>Part 1.

What is Requiem<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>To get to know Requiem, it is hard not to mention DRM. Out of the desire to support FairPlay for iTunes movies, music, eBooks and other media contents, digital rights management (DRM) is widely adopted to control the use, modification, and distribution of copyrighted software or multimedia. As a DRM removal tool, Requiem was originally developed to remove DRM from Apple multimedia so that other devices or systems can freely play iTunes contents. Requiem went through back and forth battles with Apple for the DRM removal service, but recently it seems to stop the war with Apple as it gradually works unstably and even stops upgrading in V.4.1 for years, which is then released but limited to work under iTunes version lower than V.10.7. This announces that Requiem will soon disappear from public and people who still have the need to remove DRM from iTunes multimedia can only take the advantage of alternatives to Requiem that perform iTunes DRM media conversion in a similar way.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-part pl20 mt10\" id=\"Part2\"><b>Part 2. Top 5 alternatives to Requiem for reference<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>Talking about Requiem alternatives to remove iTunes DRM, I will describe top 5 options in the following parts to let you have a general understanding of each program.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-h3\">No.1 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leawo.org\/tunescopy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Leawo Prof. DRM<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>As a professional multimedia tool developer, Leawo Software releases a variety of tools to users for helping them in processing media contents, among which Leawo Prof. DRM is strongly recommended in this case. This tool is specially designed to remove DRM from iTunes videos, music, and eBooks losslessly. That is to say, after DRM removal, this program is able to retain the file quality at 1:1 as the original file, ensuring the lossless music or video experience. Though compared with its peers in the industry, it works 50X faster but it compromises little on quality. In addition, it keeps AC3 Dolby 5.1 surround sound after file conversion. That is the reason for top 1 alternative to Requiem in my recommendation list.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tc\">\n<p><a onclick=\"return hs.expand(this)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.leawo.org\/images\/tutorial\/tunescopy\/add-file-panel.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.leawo.org\/images\/tutorial\/tunescopy\/add-file-panel.png\" title=\"tunescopy-ultimate-1\" alt=\"tunescopy-ultimate-1\" width=\"560\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\"><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3 class=\"wp-h3\">No.2 <a href=\"https:\/\/audials.com\/en\/tunebite\/audials_tunebite_platinum_windows_software.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Audials Tunebite<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>This is another type of program to handle iTunes DRM-ed files.
