Tuneskit DRM Media Converter for Mac: Free Download

iTunes, the heart and soul of an iOS user. iTunes is a humongous store for media files like music, movies, games and so on. As we all know, the beauty of iOS platform is the strongly knitted security. The security is so tough that it often refrains you from viewing your media files on any other platform. But when a user purchases a movie or a video spending bucks from his/her pockets, he/she would want to enjoy full rights over the purchased product. But this freedom is somehow clipped off by DRM. Digital Rights Management or DRM is a set of access controls that constrains the use of proprietary hardware and copyrighted software and media files. If you are looking at it from a security perspective, then of course DRM is great. But from a user point of view, it is not so great. For example, you have purchased a video on iTunes. Would you like to purchase the same video from Play Store with an additional amount? Certainly not. That’s when DRM is a disappointment. DRM technologies gain command over copyrighted media and enforce its policies so that they can’t be misused. DRM is not universally accepted and therefore, software applications to remove DRM protection is legal.

Pros

The UI is very efficiently designed. Not too many unnecessary options cluttering the UI to confuse users.

  • It removes DRM without any loss. If you look into the converted files, you will find no difference between the original and converted files.
  • DRM Removal speed is also appreciable. The company claims that the software removes iTunes DRM at 30x faster speed. In reality, it works very fast.
  • It keeps AC3 5.1 Dolby surround sound, AAC stereo tracks, AD, CC, subtitles, etc.
  • Cons

  • The software has one loophole. It does not work with all versions of OSX. It only works with version 10.8 to 10.12. The application has this limitation for advanced versions.
  • Other than this, there is no negative aspect. The company must look into the matter and upgrade the software as soon as possible.
