Had enough of DRM

I never pirate, always pay for music and never share with anyone. With all the new restrictions I can clearly see how it would driving people to piracy.

I replace my mp3 and PC hardware frequently but always run into problems with licensing even though I legally purchased the mp3s. The upgrade to Windows Media Player 11 in particular was really problematic and now my entire collection for the last 7 years asks for an ID/password for each and every MP3 to download the license.

Since I really do not have time for this crap I am not downloading or purchasing anything at this point. So the music industry loses out when people like me decide to keep their wallet closed because of crap like this.

So now they have made an honest person like me consider finding software that will strip the DRM protection from music I have purchased because of their bullshit. (any recommendations?)
