    Burn to CD? It's not even as hard as that.

    You don't even have to burn to a cd and then re-encode. DRM is a pointless exercise in futility, as Apple locks up the music and yet has to give you the key to play it with.

    Get on Google, invest 10 minutes in research, and download a tool that will strip the DRM out of the files. No downgrade in quality required.
