Tunebite 6 Platinum

Tunebite 6 Platinum legally copies and converts music tracks, audio books, video clips and films whether DRM copy-protected or not into the formats required by today's mobile devices. It converts protected WMA, M4A, M4B and M4P formats into unprotected MP3, WMA, WMA Pro, OGG, M4A and WAV audio files.

Since 2004, Tunebite has been mentioned and singled out for excellence in more computer trade publications than any other legal software solution that removes DRM copy protection. The new Platinum 6 version is more intuitive and easier to use than ever before.

Tunebite Platinum 6 has one of a kind quality control with "PerfectAudio," which guarantees a perfect reproduction of the original copy-protected file by creating two simultaneous recordings and then comparing them to check for errors. It also has the option of choosing to use the Tunebite virtual CD burner instead of burning to a physical CD to remove copy-protection. Plus, as with older versions of Tunebite, the ringtone maker still offers a great way to make ringtones from your digital music files and CDs; it can also strip out the audio from a video clip and record sound from an alternative source such as a microphone.

Tunebite 6 Platinum is certainly an improvement over previous versions with additional benefits such as faster file conversions, support for more streaming media sites, and the Perfect Audio feature. It's a great tool if you feel frustrated over DRM restrictions and need a media toolbox that can convert, record, and backup your music and video files.

Tunebite 6 Platinum: What We Liked

• There is a new feature where you are able to choose what technical level you want to work in. The default mode is aimed at the beginner who needs a simplified interface to quickly convert their files. For the more advanced user, a change in mode will reveal more options for bitrates and custom configurations.
• Up to 54x speed is now possible and the quality of the converted files is excellent.
• It has a really easy-to-use interface. A new feature is the drop-down menu on the add button that gives you the option to either add single files or entire folders.

Tunebite Platinum: What We Didn't Like

• The user-manual lacks detail in certain areas and should be updated for optimum help, e.g. there is no explanation for installing the virtual CD burner.
• The downside to using the Perfect Audio mode is that it takes significantly more time to convert files; if you've got a lot of files then be prepared for a long wait!

Lots of entertainment, many different file formats, many copy protection mechanisms, and lots of problems - this is the situation users are faced with when trying to play copy-protected music, audio books, and videos they have purchased on many different devices at home and on the go. In this new version 6, the software's previous features, which have been awarded various prizes by international journals, were further improved and enhanced with new innovations:

High Quality, Higher Quality, and Tunebite 6 Quality
The new "PerfectAudio" technology incorporated into Tunebite 6 ensures by means of multiple recordings and sophisticated algorithms that users will have perfect audio files free of copy-protection after their re-recording. Recording quality when converting copy-protected films to video was also improved and dramatically enhanced in Tunebite 6 by means of a new algorithm, improving synchronisation between video and audio tracks. Taking into consideration the PC's operating system and power, Tunebite 6 assesses the expected output quality of the video file to be converted and warns of quality loss, if the PC is lacking in power, before conversion takes place. During conversion Tunebite 6 monitors the quality, suggesting the best Codec selection to avoid problems.

Copy-protection problems with music files will now be solved with up to 54x speeds
Tunebite 6 now provides 27 virtual sound cards to eliminate copy-protection problems from music and audio books by playback and recording speeds of up to 54x. This speed advantage is particularly useful for larger amounts of music files.

Virtual CD Burner for Playback Software
Users of playback software with CD burner features can use Tunebite 6 to burn the music files onto a virtual CD, which Tunebite 6 then uses in turn to convert the files into any desired format. Tunebite users benefit from 10x speeds and perfect quality when converting individual music and audio book files by this new method.

Enhanced and greatly simplified operation of the universal converter
Now Tunebite 6 users do not even need to know the file format of their devices. They simply select the desired output format from a list of manufacturers of mobile phones, MP3 players, games consoles, and other playback devices. This makes the selection of a profile even easier despite more than 100 available output formats for music, audio books, and films.

Recording Devices for Web Videos and Web Radios
Now Tunebite 6 also provides an audio recorder, specially designed for social web radio stations, e. g. Last.fm, Soundclick, Yahoo Launchcast, or Pandora. This means Tunebite 6 users receive free music of their choice in MP3 format. Tunebite 6 is able to record web videos on YouTube and other video portals automatically, while they are being watched, and to save them in a suitable playback format for any mobile device. As a special option with a child-protection lock, Tunebite 6 Platinum can even record videos from erotica portals.
