iTunes copy protection 'cracked' 
 
Music downloaded from iTunes can only be played on an iPod
The code that prevents music downloaded from Apple's iTunes store being played on any portable player other than an iPod has been "cracked".
Apple has not commented on claims that Jon Lech Johansen has "reverse engineered" the FairPlay system.

His company, DoubleTwist, said that it planned to license the code to other digital music player manufac
 
The new "workaround" could help companies like these sell iTunes compatible products that could start to scratch away at the iPod's dominance.



No doubt Apple will raise a stink about this, lets hope the lawyers are up to speed and head off any attacks from Apple.
