I would like to play video's from the iTunes store on my PSP, is there anything out there that can do this, or is likely to do it in the near future? I've tried dropping an iTunes video file (For the Birds.m4v) onto PSPWare, but it won't convert it, and Save and Save As in Quicktime 7 is greyed out (because its protected, I guess). Any ideas on how to do this?

Look after my manor, or I will bum you, literally, to death.

In the same way that you can't convert songs from the iTMS to other formats (directly anyway) or play them on players other than iPods, videos from iTMS are protected and can't be converted to other formats or played on non-Apple devices. There may eventually be a workaround, but there isn't one yet as far as I know.

Bummer. I was hoping to burn my Lost episodes onto DVD (NOT expecting DVD quality) and watch it on my couch.

If anyone finds out about this i would be really interested to know as i have been trying to do the same things with lost. Convert the new episodes i downloaded from apply (Mv4) into MP4 so that i could watch them on the PSP when i am travelling. I know i could watch them on my powerbook but the PSP is such a cool little device.
