No, it doesn't bypass DRM restrictions. The lame encoder included in the free version can only convert to MP3 for 30 days. Replacing it with a different Lame encoder only takes that 30 day restriction away, it does nothing about DRM.

So I just installed MediaMonkey (freeware) and downloaded LAME. I copied the codec into my MediaMonkey file but when I try to convert the audio format, the program tells me that it cannot be done-possibly because of DRM. I thought that the codec was meant to bypass the DRM restrictions? Pls help...thanks

Nevermind...

I was putting the new lame_enc.dll in my ..\MediaMonkey 3 folder, but the latest install I did of MediaMonkey went to ...\MediaMonkey\

cheers

Hi,

I have version 3.0.3.1183. I replaced the lame_enc.dll in \Program Files\MediaMonkey 3\
I go to "tools - convert audio format", and choose the MP3 format. When I try to encode it says I've past the 30-day trial period. My understanding is that by replacing the lame_enc.dll that encoding should work. Has this changed with the newer versions?

I didn't see any place where I got to choose the mp3 encoder of my choice.

thanks
