iTunes is one of the finest songs, TV Shows, and movie repository available for entertainment lovers. It allows the users to purchase and stream songs, movies, TV shows, and audiobooks, easily.

Due to this, users can stream their purchased media content on iTunes or Apple’s clients only, and not anywhere else. Wait a minute! What exactly is DRM protection?
What is DRM Protection?
DRM, or Digital Rights Management, is a technique that certain vendors apply the method to restrict the platforms and methods in which media purchased from them can be used.
