How to Remove DRM from Apple Music Songs

Prior to January 2009, Apple's FairPlay Digital Rights Management (DRM) was integrated into iTunes, which manages songs purchased from the iTunes Store in the m4p file format. Apple announced that DRM has been removed from 80% of the US music catalog on January 6, 2009, but we found that some of the content in the iTunes store, such as TV series, many books and movies are still protected by FairPlay.

Since Apple Music songs add DRM locks, these m4p file formats can only be played on computers with iTunes or iPhone / iPad / iPod; non-Apple devices do not support FairPlay encoded tracks. Only when you remove DRM from Apple Music can you keep the song forever and play it on any device. This article details a perfect solution that focuses on getting rid of Apple's DRM restrictions and converting them from m4p to normal audio formats like mp3 so you can play legally purchased Apple Music tracks without restrictions.
