SoundTaxi is the most popular software on the market designed to legally convert DRM copy-protected audio and video files. It was developed by Ramka Ltd. software team who are one of the first to implement "Virtual Audio Device" DRM media conversion technology - the most universal way to convert protected music and video. The software with such technology installs the virtual soundcard device and likely "re-records" your music through virtual speakers. The data flow is digital so the output is almost lossless. The key feature of SoundTaxi is that all you can hear or see can be recorded. The program supports over 100 audio and video formats for songs, videos and audio books. The interface is user-friendly and any media can be converted just in few mouse clicks.
SoundTaxi is the legal way to get around copy-protection. The software doesn't strip or technically remove DRM-protection from media as there's no need to modify the original files. The songs are merely played and recorded into the selected output formats. So, because SoundTaxi uses virtual soundcard technology, the main requirement for conversion is that you have valid DRM licenses to playback your purchased music and videos. Of course the protected files can be converted for personal use only.
Using innovative technology maintaining extremely effective PC utilization, SoundTaxi is the fastest converter for protected audio files. Utilizing as much logical CPU's as your computer has, the program can perform up to 16 conversions simultaneously. The faster computer you have, the higher is summary converting speed on your PC. Latest SoundTaxi versions can determine the PC performance rating, so anyone can install the trial unregistered version and foresee the number of possible simultaneous conversions on his computer. If your PC performance rating is over 80 - congratulations, you will enjoy the program to the fullest. As the program requires faster CPU and plenty of RAM, you can experience output sound and video quality problems converting protected songs and videos on old and slow computers. To get around them, better avoid running heavy tasks during conversion.
