Possible to play iTunes purchased video content? - Xoom General

I have literally over 500$ worth of videos on iTunes. I am trying to find a way to be able to play them back on the Xoom. Seems DoubleTwist won't copy over DRM files. Is there any program for free/purchase that can do this? I don't want to have to buy a iPod Touch just to watch iTunes on the go.

The only way to do it would be to remove the DRM...which for itunes videos I believe can only be done using a special program on a Mac...

Apple looses again.

Never buy DRM. Apple has successfully locked you in to always using apple software just because you paid so much for content.

You just need to search around on the net, there are some programs that can do it with a PC. You can either purchase some, or there is one free one called requiem that you can use, but it only works on specific versions of itunes. Its a java based program and can strip the drm off a 2 hour movie in about 10 mintues.

I'm honestly surprised you didn't go for an iPad first. It just seems like you are someone that would have...

I've just swapped from an ipad to the xoom & transferred my music videos straight from the iTunes library on my PC to the video folder of the xoom & they all play straight away. I tried to copy a movie over but couldn't get that to play though. Don't know if it makes any difference but are they stored in the correct folder?

The only "purchased" content that I have in my iTunes library are digital copies of blurays that I own anyway. I d/l my music from MP3VA ($.15 per song) or rip them from my CDs since I would NEVER EVER pay $.99 for one song or $9.99 for a digital video file.

I remember following your early thread(s). Welcome back man! And I dont' think it was meant offensive; it seems natural to assume that someone with half a grant worth of videos on iTunes would opt for an iPad... But you made the right decision!

Oh no! I definitely wasnt trying to be offensive. As the poster I quoted said, it seems like someone who poured that much money into iTunes would get the tablet made for iTunes y'know.

Hey, you're not the only one. I have an iPhone 4 and Mac Mini as well. Actually, I'm still not great with OS X but, doing the ADB commands through it is easier I think. It's more Linuxy/Unixy... Just like in the Xoom itself.
I wonder if I have any DRM videos... I got them off iTunes but they were free.

I was able to move and view them using Tunesync with little problem

That's a bunch of crap. That app doesn't even support video. It won't even remove DRM from music...

you can use requiem for removing the DRM. It's worked great for me every time. There is a (TOR) onion link to get it if you google for it.

Anybody know how to watch itunes movies on an android? It seems the only way is to pay for a DRM removal but it seems so unfair that I cannot watch movies that I paid for on my device!

That's why I don't use iTunes. $10+ for a movie you can only use on certain devices, vs $2 or so for the used DVD from Amazon or wherever... The price is just a minor issue, but the fact that they control how you can use your purchase is ridiculous IMHO.

I totally agree, but really this is iTunes issue, not Android issue. DRM is evil - Apple should be the one taking these complaints

Thats correct. You are paying to rent them.
The UI seems nice. I've been using Handbrake on Ubuntu and Windows (and OS X when I had a Mac) (converting to mp4, not mpv).
I'll check this one out next time I'm on that side of the hard drive.

Yes I am in no way blaming android. I'm frustrated with apple but thought that if anyone would know how to get around it xda would.

Yea, I know. I don't often buy movies as renting is good but I was given a voucher. It is sad when you you realise that, as the previous poster said, you are just rentig your purchase. There should be some law against this.

Just downloaded netflix and it works

http://www.mediafire.com/?k0iwa8c4tvaxr9s
Just downloaded the file onto my external then used the myfiles to open and install. Works like a charm.
Define "works." Works as in you're able to sign-in to your Netflix account, purchase movies, and then watch them? Netflix has always worked on various phones but no one using an APK version has ever been able to connect to the Netflix servers and actually do anything. It'll be great if it does in fact work on the SGS2.

Stream all netflix content just like on iphone and WP7.
I have been waiting for this for years.
Works like a charm...loving my GS2 more and more each day!
Confirmed working.
Well, holy crap. I'm guessing whatever bizarre DRM requirements Netflix is demanding are built in to the SGS2 already in preparation for inclusion of Netflix on carrier-branded phones. More bragging rights
Works for me as well!
Here's a quick video I did of the Netflix app working on the SGS II.

It does look good doesn't it. Android just laid the beat down on all Os's. All it was missing was netflix and a good music service. Now it has two music services and netflix. Apple can suck a 3.5 inch penis.

Hi,
Yep, that's me. Still run misticriver.net although as you can imagine, there is no market for iriver now and PMP's are a thing of the past. Loving the SGS II. Also managed to snag a Galaxy Tab 10.1 from Google I/O so looking forward to playing with that a bit.

I did the same, thanks for the tip OP, I was planning on canceling my netflix this month because I couldn't watch it on my phone

Has anyone heard when the GT10.1 might be getting Netflix? Or Google Movies?
I love this tablet, but I don't like the lack of optimized tablet apps and the missing Netflix. I'm debating whether to hold onto this tablet and wait because I really do love the look and feel of the tablet and of Honeycomb or if I want to return it for an iPad 2 and come back to an Android tablet in a couple months (or a year) when there are more apps. So...that's why I'm curious about Netflix.

You must be referring to the Asus Transformer.
The iPad was craptastic until the Jailbreakers got to it.

Is a Xoom worth it?

I really want a Xoom even though its older and a Xoom 2 is supposedly in the works, I cant really afford a Xoom 2. I wanted to sell my laptop and get a.Xoom because I dont really use it anymore since I got my Evo 3D. Is a Xoom still worth it or wait for Xoom 2 later?
Whooo! (Cole Voice...)
Wait. It isn't a laptop replacement.

So wait for a Xoom 2? Only thing I would need a laptop for is iTunes to manage my music.

Personally speaking, the current Xoom functions as a laptop replacement and more but it all depends on what you expect to do with it. You've heard from at least one person who disagrees with me, but many more would agree. It's an amazing piece of hardware and will only become more functional as more apps and customizations are created for it.
But do as you like.

Couldn't agree more. I have the latest Team Tiamat Moray ROM on here with Bazar617's StockRed UI, and with the current crop of apps, I believe I am getting value far beyond my original expectations. The development community that is behind the Xoom is going to make this worthwhile for a long time.
They are $329 from amazon, a damn good deal until the quad core models are available.

Xoom 2 won't be a laptop replacement either, Android tablets will never replace a windows laptop, especially not what i use my laptop for. I download all my music in .flac then convert them to mp3, try doing that on a android tablet!

It's unrealistic to expect any tablet to suitably be your only computer. I have my high-powered desktop to do all that downloading, ripping, file conversion, storage for streaming, and for adb, etc...My Xoom goes everywhere with me, something I wouldn't do with a laptop. My desktop and Xoom make a perfect team and I'm mobile as can be.

not yet, see what the Xoom2 or Xformer 2 has to offer. The browser still is garbage and it will annoy you if you want to surf with browser. the HDMI sound is in mono which is also terrible if you want to hook it up to your flat screen. I love mine to death but will be getting rid of it once either a new one with better browser and audio comes out or another table is comparable..
I hope ICS resolves some of the annoyances.

Hi, I jsut got an A500...

for $200 bucks in really good condition! I love this tablet but I would like to know if anybody knows a way to watch Amazon prime videos on it and use the Lending Library for Amazon Prime Members, I haven't done research on this but is this possible?
So you have not tried playing videos off Amazons website yet, last time I did it worked
