How do you put bear share videos on your ipod?

Bearshare music has the DRM protection which avoid customer play or convert the downloaded music with other incompatible devices and if you don't keep paying you can't keep the music when the subscription expired . So if you want to play the protected music with other incompatible players (like iPod and Zune) and keep the music forever, you should remove the DRM with a specialized converter. And here I found a good program to help me remove DRM and convert the DRM music. You can free download it to have a try. http://www.wmatomp3-converter.com/digital-music-converter.html It can remove the DRM from protected music (mp3, wma,m4p, wav, etc) and extract audios from DRM video (wmv, m4v, asf, etc).

When I try to add music off my laptop onto Windows Movie Maker it keeps coming up with the file then this is protected using digital rights management and cannot be imported. what am i doing wrong?

You are not going to be able to import that particular music file into Windows Movie Maker because it is protected by DRM (Digital Rights Management):DRM stands for digital rights management. DRM is a technology used by content providers, such as online stores, to control how the digital music and video files you obtain from them are used and distributed. Online stores sell and rent songs and movies that have DRM applied to them.Windows Media Player as well as most online stores and new devices support/use Windows Media Digital Rights Management 10 (DRM 10).The bottom line, is that the music you are attempting to import is protected by Copyrights.
