Playing iTunes Music on a PSP
Andy writes, “I purchased songs from iTunes Music Store and I locked all of my songs so my sister couldn’t use them, and now I don’t know how to unlock them. We are now only using one user on Windows XP. Would you know how to unlock these songs so I can play them on my PSP?”
iTunes Music Store songs not playing on your PSP isn’t something you did specifically; it’s by design. Apple uses copy protection on all items purchased through the iTunes Store in order to prevent you from playing the songs anywhere but on your iPod or on an authorized Mac or PC. Sony’s PSP is not an iTunes supported device. If your PSP is the primary device you plan to use for playing back songs on the go, I would suggest buying CDs and ripping them rather than relying on iTunes as your method of song acquisition. You spend less time working with your music files to get them where you want and more time actually listening or doing something fun.
There is a legal (although somewhat time consuming) way around this problem.
