Q: how do I convert songs to unprotected that were bought and are protected
several years ago iTunes would classify songs as PROTECTED file format. This block of songs [approx 900] are now causing problems in using them for current playlists as they will NOT work on devices such as my home audio system with SONOS. How can I convert these songs to another file format without losing quality of format? My only option I can think of is to convert them to a CD in MP3 format and then reload them. This seems to be a poor choice as it would down grade the quality and take a very large amount of time and resources [many CD discs] to accomplish. Is there any software out there to convert such files. I have looked and not found any as yet. I also called Apple and they had no solution for me at that time.
OS X Yosemite (10.10.2), Mac Mini (mid 2011)
