i recently bought some movies and i want to play them on a different computer i have without running them in iTunes. i need to decrypt the DRM protection that the files have on them. I looked on Google and didn't really understand what any of the information was. So if anybody could help me with this, it would be a huge help. +k for good answers

if you just click and drag on the movie and move it to your desktop, you can then put it on a flash drive and take that to the other computer where you can put it on that itunes(or not) or just double click it and it will play on quick time player

May I ask why? You can authorize it on up to 5 computers...

here are 2 options:

-type the password yourself, you have 2 more computers that can be authorized

-have him buy it again to further support the industry, its not that expensive...
