So can this remove DRMs off music then?
If yes how would it work? Does the virtual harddrisk act as a cd burner and instead of putting it on cd place it on the harddrive - DRM free?

You're probably thinking we might be able to export from iTunes by using the 'Burn to CD' method, but using virtual discs instead of CD discs.
I don' t think it's possible to do this. From what I understand, we have to use Daemon Tools to make virtual discs from CD or DVD or games discs then mount them so that they run from the hard drive.

I guess using Re-Writable CD discs is the way to go when exporting from iTunes.

Actually from Nokia Ovi Player - so I could burn all the music onto a rewritable DVD then import them DRM free via the virtual disk drive? Have I got that right? What do I need to do to import it from the virtual disk drive DRM free?

I think forget the virtual disc drive, it's a red herring.
Burn some tracks to a CD-RW disc.
Then 'rip' them using something like Windows Media Player.
Then repeat.

I have tried in the past burning as a data disk on a RW DVD but that didn't work... Might try again though!

Not sure about that. I can not get it to install on Win 7 64 bit. It keeps saying that there is no network connection. It's fine on Win 7 32bit & XP.

I was trying on the day of the giveaway. It just doesn't recognise that my PC has a network connection. it sounds like it is looking for a specific network process to hook into but it is named something different in x64
