Press Release Summary: You are considering buying a Microsoft Zune as you broke your
iPod or had your iPod stolen. And you bought a lot of songs from iTunes store
because you had money left on your iTunes gift card. You still want to enjoy those
purchased songs on your Zune MP3 player. Or you own an iPod while your
boyfriend/girlfriend has a Zune. And you hope to share the library of M4P music
songs purchased from iTunes store under your account with your boyfriend/girlfriend.
Here comes the headache! The M4P music you bought from iTunes is DRM-laden! You

Press Release Body: You are considering buying a Microsoft Zune as you broke your
iPod or had your iPod stolen. And you bought a lot of songs from iTunes store
because you had money left on your iTunes gift card. You still want to enjoy those
purchased songs on your Zune MP3 player. Or you own an iPod while your
boyfriend/girlfriend has a Zune. And you hope to share the library of M4P music
songs purchased from iTunes store under your account with your boyfriend/girlfriend.
Here comes the headache! The M4P music you bought from iTunes is DRM-laden! You
cannot transfer the iTunes M4P music to the Zune software, not to mention playing
the iTunes M4P music on your Zune music player.

Yet, there seems to be a solution. You can burn the protected M4P music files to
CD-R or CD-RW disc to make an audio CD and then use some CD ripper software to
convert the audio CD track back to Zune accepted MP3 or WMA. And iTunes allows you
to burn the protected music files to CD-R or CD-RW disc to make a standard audio CD.
Sounds a good idea! But it would be a time consuming process if you have a library
of iTunes M4P music files ready to be converted to Zune MP3 or WMA. Moreover, the
information about the M4P music files like title, artist and album will be lost
after burning and ripping back to MP3 or WMA files. So this method is not
recommended if you have a big collection of iTunes M4P music files ready to be
transferred to your Zune.

I've made a Google search for programs that can convert iTunes M4P music to Zune WMA
MP3, and TuneClone Audio Converter attracted my attention. The edge of TuneClone
over other similar programs is that it applys the virtual CD burning technology to
simulates the burning and ripping process. You just need to burn the iTunes M4P
playlist to TuneClone virtual CD burner. Then TuneClone will directly convert the
iTunes M4P music list to Zune WMA or MP3 for you. It is very fast and the
information about each music song will be preserved perfectly. Below are several key
steps to convert iTunes M4P music to Zune MP3 or WMA using TuneClone Audio
Converter.

You can use TuneClone Audio Converter to move your library of M4P DRM protected
music to the MP3 format that you can use on any player out there worth its salt.
This is a useful tool for anyone looking to break their relationship with the iPod.
This software does cost $34.95 to register but that price does give you what appears
to be a full feature application. The best part is that it maintains all of the
music file's metadata.
