Nokia created the bestselling phone of all time, the Nokia 1100 in 2003, and in 2007 half of all smartphones sold in the world was Nokias. However, the quality of Nokia’s phones plus its operating systems continued to decline and failed to attract customers. The decline continued to accelerate, and even when Microsoft acquired it in 2011. By 2013, Nokia had lost it all when it had previously been the best phone brand, and also a one that produced unbreakable phones for years. Nokia’s failure may be attributed to lack of vision and inferior technology as compared to iPhone and Android-based brands. After years of planning, Nokia made a ‘comeback’ sometime in 2017. To catch up with the world, they decided to employ Android instead of Windows or Symbian OS. Presently, Nokia makes 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8 and X series of smartphones. They vary from low end to high-end devices all with stunning features. Since they run Android, MP4 video is a format that is widely supported by them.

Part 1. Why can you not play iTunes M4V movies on Nokia directly?

If you are hunting for a movie, iTunes is has been and continues to be the ultimate digital store where you can find them. The fact is you can find almost any movie or TV show ever produced in this digital store, from action, romantic, classics, Sci-Fi, comedy, horrors and much more. For these reasons, iTunes has attracted millions of people in its digital store, but iTunes has strict sharing policies on its media files, and most of them may be protected by Apple’s version of DRM. What this means is in most cases, users can only open and play the media files on authorized computers and devices. M4V video is Apple’s way of protecting video files on iTunes and this includes movies, TV shows and music videos. M4V and MP4 video share very similar characteristics, which can make interchanging these video formats possible by simply renaming them, but this problem will not work with DRM protected videos. These are the reasons why you cannot directly play iTunes M4V movies on a Nokia device which uses Android as the operating system. In this guide we will introduce several ways to remove DRM from the iTunes movies and compare them so that you can choose the best one for the job.
