Q: I need to transfer an iTunes movie to USB so that I can watch the movie on my Samsung Smart TV. But it seems impossible to put any iTunes movie to the USB flash drive. What's wrong?
There will always come a time when you need to put your movies in the iTunes library on a USB stick. But it's a pity that transferring iTunes movies to a USB flash drive is not an easy job. If you are facing such a problem, follow this article to learn how to put iTunes movies on a USB flash drive.
Part 1. Can You Put iTunes Movies on a USB Directly?
Many of you may wonder why transferring iTunes movies directly to a USB flash drive isn't as straightforward as with other video files. Unlike standard videos, iTunes movies are protected by Apple's FairPlay DRM, which restricts copying these files to USB drives or non-Apple devices. Due to this DRM protection, a USB drive won't recognize or play iTunes movies correctly. To make iTunes movies playable from a USB, you'll need to first remove the DRM protection.
In this case, ViWizard iTunes M4V Converter (Mac & Windows) will do the trick for you.
