You could record them using an analog method. The catch is it can only be done in realtime and you may lose some sound quality.

Are you aware that you can do it without exporting the file to a portable media player? All you have to do is play the file using the licensed player then record via "Wave-Out Mix." It will save to your HD immediatly saving some time.

Currently there is no digitally legal way to do this. Defeating DRM protections is illegal and no programmer that doesn't want the RIAA all over them is going to break a DRM protection in public. This semi-analog way has been around since Win 95 (Windows recorder). Now it is a loop-hole in current DRM protections.

But they are quickly patching it up! The next gen DRM protections all have analog watermarks that will make it that much more difficult to play the music you pay for. The Open-source sommunity is actually beginning a DRM project of there own. Nobody wants the Open-source community to back a DRM scheme since there isn't a more intelligent (or ever-evolving) group of software engineers.
