hey guys just thought i would update everybody on the progress that has been made. first off i made a some small advancements that has led me to some good news and then some bad new. first off the good news, the latest version of flashplayer (version 9 update 3) is capable of playing music downloaded from itunes (AAC and M4A), so in that arena everything is clipping right along. now for the bad news, despite flashplayer being able to play downloaded itunes, it is incapable of playing protected itunes music. in other words any music that you have downloaded that is not from the itunes plus store or music that you have copied from a cd into itunes, will not play. this leaves me with two options:
1 the easy way: make anybody that has downloaded protected music from itunes (me included) download another program to strip the drm from their itunes collection (something that i would not mind doing anyway) or
2 the hard and prob better way: figure out a way to possibly interface the real quicktime player through an external java app and then add it in as a plugin or module of some sort.
anyway i banging my head against a wall.
What do you guys think?
any ideas?
