FairUse4WM successfully strips Windows Media DRM

article published on 25 August, 2006

A fairly new application called FairUse4WM has been generating buzz lately as it can single handedly and quite easily strip the DRM placed on Windows Media content for WM 10 and 11. DRM encryption, as we all know is placed on certain files that prohibits its use on other devices and/or sharing the media file amongst others. Up until now, several applications have come and gone claiming ... [ read the full article ]

The power of the so called "Darknet" is evolving.

I've been sort of reading the dark net forems for quite sometime. And also been chatting with a few good men. I can tell you that the moment MS comes up with a fix that it will be cracked. Tunebite for an example does not depend on any black box whatever. It was used way before this little app was invented. Its way slower, but still works with no loss that I can see or hear. So billy boy can just sit and cry. And so can Steve Jobs because this same app cracks iTunes too. Again its a little slower than fairuse4wm. DRM is a Joke and even MS knows it. It was a matter of time.

This may be off topic but remember when I posted an idea about Ads Enforcement management (AEM)? Well looks like Spiralfrog.com has taken my idea and ran with it. And even some readers of Slyck and Afterdawn.com thought it would not work. Well in the month of Dec we'll see how well it will work and with this new cracking tool yoou'll be able to crack the DRM but not the AEM. So the entertainment industry and maybe some of you users can thank Voodoohippie for such a great idea that was copied and no royalties were given to me by the way.

I was forced today to upgrade the programm with which I can lent digitally music from a library. And it was no surprise to me that FairUse4Wm didn't work any longer with the newly downloaded files. So the library must have used the Microsoft patch to kill FairUse4WM.

I'm curious when the next patch to get rid of DRM will appear ....

@wong99

Did you get the update to fairuse4wm? its now at 1.2. and yes it works still on two services I have files from and even video. So again they lost.

becides Tunebite will always crack both the audio and video for months to come. Because it does not depend on the IBX method like fairuse4wm. So even if and that is a BIG if they were to be able to stop fairuse4wm they still have a long way to go to stop Tunebite. So dream on DRM kings dream on DRM IS A JOKE and the laugh is on them. Oh yea how can they depend on M$ when they can't even come up with an operating system that has no bugs in the source code and how long has Windows been out? I rest my case. Laugh My A$$ Off.

Damn straight. I've told many people when this crap first started in 2003 that they need to join EFF and fight to the bitter end against anti fair use. And becides you can use AEM (Ads Enforcement) to pay the artists. And well spiralfrog.com finally copied my idea and made it available to the public. The entertainment industry will see that there is $$ to be made via this type of service. So much that I bet most people will shy away from Limewire, Ares, Kazaa (crap most smart people don't use that anymore) and go the legal route (although they'll use fairuse4wm 1.2 or higher) and get their content from a virus free service.

At first many people made fun of me. Now its time we can all stand firm. Thanks to the creator of fairuse4wm and I know his code name but won't give it out here. I hope of he's reading this that he'll continue posting the updates and keep using anonymous proxies that change like a gatling gun.

I'm using 1.3 with WMP 10 and it works great. If your trying to crack WMP 11 I think your gonna find it harder. I believe that there will be newer updates to Fairuse4WM soon.

@ Dom

If you want to play DvD's anywhere in the world without a Region code you'll need to use AnyDVD to crack the CSS code and to take any Prohibitions in user operations. This is why I dissagree with any sort of copy protection because it is not compatible with all devices in every situation.

I've yet to see an update to the 1.3 app. I read that there was a sort of patch for it, but then the person tried to write their own version of fairuse4wm since the program seemed to be a closed source piece of software. Till then just use Tunebite. It works really well and I've been able to back my purchased video Downloads with it. It works very will with purchased tunes from iTunes, Yahoo, Napster, Urge and more.

Or you could just go to a russian site to buy your movies and music. One like zml.com for movies and mp3search.ru work very well. Of course the MPAA and RIAA are crying foul because they believe their not getting enough royalties from these Russian sites. Truth is that the Russian court proved that since the Russians are paying royalties for Movies and Music that come in from the US it is not outside of the law. allofmp3.com is going ad supported soon (an idea I've posed about in many forums). Yes you can Download and copy all you want, but their going to enforce some sort of AEM (Ads Enforcement Management) like the type I've mentioned. Too bad I didn't patent this idea. I could have become a very Rich man by now.

Hmmm...running Vista with all latest updates and this doesn't work. I've read elsewhere (http://expertlancer.com/microsoft-update-kills-fairuse4wm/), that a Windows patch stopped Fairuse4wm working. Does anyone know which update I need to remove to get this working?

I'm running WMP 11 (11.0.6000.6344).

Thanks!
