Hi

If this is not in the right please my apologies.

My question has to do with removing DRM protection from bit torrent downloads. I am trying to use VUZE and it seems almost everything I DL comes up with the DRM protected flag. I am hoping to burn to DVD for viewing on our TV

Any suggestions on how to do this?

Many thanks

There's a piracy forum for these kind of questions.

Yes, but the piracy forum is also DRM protected, so good luck.

Soaking the files in rubbing alcohol for about 5 minutes should do the trick.

My sig is 1 pixel too big.

Depends on the DRM.

If you torrent DRMed media, you need the matching account and password to be able to burn it, no ?

Exactly. And it’s not here.

Excellent though the advice given thus far has undoubtedly been, I’ll close the thread now, before anyone comes in and accidentally posts some advice that’ll actually help poor Geoff inadvertently break any laws.
