XRT-FM - YOUR Music Station

Interesting Discovery

April 11, 2008 · No Comments

As I’ve been listening to the new XRT-FM 2.0 from work I’ve noticed some erratic and skipping playback from time to time. I dismissed it as just regular streaming problems. But I began to notice a distinct pattern… Apparently, there is some mechanism within Apple’s DRM protocol that screws up the streaming of their protected songs. I noticed the skipping is only on those songs that I’ve purchased from iTunes. Seems really backwards as I have paid for the song. I own that song now and can use it as I wish. Highway robbery I say.

Of course, there are ways around this and rest assured, Timmy will work through this speed bump. It’s only a matter of burning the song to a CD and ripping it to an MP3 file. No harm, no foul.

Thanks for listening!
