Zune DRM WiFi hack: stealing songs is hard work!
Steve Safran November 25th, 2006
Via Gizmodo, a guide on how to hack the Microsoft Zune so that songs shared over WiFi don’t share their DRM, too. It ain’t easy, though, and involves the always-dangerous regedit. And if you ask me, it looks like a very clunky process. As one user points out: “Rename-upload-share-download-rename requiring 2 computers and 2 zunes is nothing more than an experiment without practical use. Just like somebody said, share a flashdrive already, ok? There are easier ways to share whatever files.”

I’d rather use the WiFi to transfer files since I could send the same file/song/whatever to 20+ people around me versus having to send some memory stick home to different people over a 10 day period. Or I send file to 2 people, they send to 2 people and pretty soon the whole “community” has the file. Sweet!!
