Napster/Winamp hack to get unprotected free music

(100% legal in this jurisdiction).

(Alternate method with OUT_LAME)

Directions

warlock1711 of club.cdfreaks.com first described this method. By using napster's 14 day free trial and winamp to bypass the DRM, you can get a ton of free music.

  1. Download and install winamp
  2. Download and install Output Stacker for winamp (Scanned with AVAST on 2005-02-17)
  3. Download and install Napster
  4. You will need to upgrade from napster light and register for the free trial which includes inputting your credit card information.
  5. Use napster to download and download
  6. Configure winamp and output stacker with the following:
  7. in winamp click options menu
  8. Play the protected WMA files in winamp
  9. As each file is played, an unprotected wave file will be created in the output directory
  10. These *.wav files can be burned straight to a music CD or ripped to MP3s.
  11. . Remember to turn off this plug in after you are done as EVERYTHING played through winamp will generate a raw *.wav file
  12. Before 2 weeks are over, cancel napster (if you wish)

Please note: Legally, you are only allowed to use this music for as long as you have an account with napster. This mechanism allows you to convert your purchased music to whatever format you wish.

But this only applies in the USA. In this jurisdiction, law explicitly supports FAIR USE, allows copying music for your own use as well as sharing it online (and the DMCIA does not apply, too, so any means needed to crack into digital protections, such as what is displayed on this page are perfectly legal. Get it, you constipated lawyers???). Oh yes, legal threats will be publicly posted here and ridiculed.
