Digital Restrictions (or Rights) Management is a set of locks on those music file that make it
impossible to play the music unless your computer has been provided the secret codes by the
company. People who make the mistake of signing up to BearShare 6, iTunes or any of those
other DRM-using services can have all or any of their music taken away without notice
whenever the control freaks who hold the codes decide to do it.

I prefer to download MP3 files because they don't support that nonsense. ;]

iTunes is available for free at Apple

Did the step-by-step instructions above not work?
Where exactly did it stop working?

Naturally they won't let you download anything until they can get your identity and
then stamp it into the files with a watermark. If you don't have a credit card then
forget them and get the version of BearShare that doesn't mess with DRM.

Did you skip the part about revealing hidden files and folders?

Hi, I'm new to this thread. I had the same problem as sheagy. I can see all hidden files and folders but when I go into all users (or even each individual user) I cannot find the drm folder. I have been stuck on "finalizing" after everytime I try to download it. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program multiple times and have even added a drmbackup folder, all to no avail.

Can someone help me please?
