    hi!

    i am new to the board, and i have a bit of a problem.

    i am trying to create a video using windows movie maker with a song i reli like. however, whenever i try to import a song, it says it is protected by Digital Rights Management.

    this reli pisses me off because i reli wanna use thing song in my movie thing. so, my question is: how can i get around this??? is there a way???

    i am rather technically challenged, so simpler answers would be best!

    thank you much!

    Use different video editing software. Try with Adobe Premiere.

    Hi!

    thanks for ur help. the file "properties" thing calls it a "windows media audio file"

    the icon is a blue box with little notes coming out of it.

    hope that helps!

    thanks again

    this is a copy of a post i replied to on OMA files, and i figured it applies to most of the questions of how to copy audio and video. If you are absolutely certain you can't or dont know how to copy music or a movie read the following:

    this may be a little late to reply to this topic, but the answer is simple, If you are unable to convert the OMA file(s), then use sony's own technology against them. I simply took a cable i had and ran my line out (the one you plug your speakers into) and ran it straight to my line-in on my sound card effectively looping the sound. Using Acid Pro (a sony product) i recorded the audio coming out of my sound card. This can be done many ways. Including, but not limited to recording Audio to a VCR tape (yes a VCR).

    people seem to forget that your PC is a very powerful tool. anything that can be seen or heard on a computer CAN BE RECORDED! If you cant copy a DVD, get a DVD player and hook it up to a TV tuner card.

    This maybe a bit low tech, but you guys never mentioned it before, at least not in this post.
