I would think that in the case of iTunes that Apple would need to do that. Are you an Apple employee working in the iTunes development area? To the best of my knowledge, there is no way to convert iTunes-purchased DRM'ed iPod videos to DVD. Your suggested google search turned up very little, and mostly just discussions about it where people mention trying things like the analog hole to get around the DRM, but with unacceptable results. Finally, why do you mourn us poor iPod users? Do you have anything further to add, like why you mourn us? @Gordon:

Yes, CSS protection is available on comercial DVDs. Unfortunatly CSS is not automaticly generated by your PC. Every movie I burn to a DVD is not protected by CSS, and I have not looked into how to make a CSS protected disk. 2. Analogue Hole refers to recording the sound of a digital track while it is being played over speakers, not ripping a CD. 3. Storing an MP3 collection on CDs is the most innefficient use of time, money, and space. 4. Backing up your MP3 collection on a hard drive or on data DVDs is the surest way to go, but with 30 GB myself I do not see DVDs as a viable option. 5. You can convert ipod movies to DVDs and other usable formats. Please visit this obscure website called "google.com" and type "ipod to dvd" and search. 6. I shall mourn for all you poor sucker ipod users. Sir,
