How To Burn iTunes Movies to DVD

Today I saw an interesting post on a forum about how to to burn protected iTunes movies and TV shows to a DVD. That would allow you to view the videos on your own home DVD player and TV.

The trick is getting rid of the "Digital Rights Management" protection of iTunes movies and converting them to a file format that can be used by DVD burner software. As the author of the post said :
What you need to do just two steps:
1. Remove DRM from iTunes purchased movie/TV show to unprotected WMV formats;
2. Burn the non-protected movie to DVDs.
It occurs to me that even the first step could be very useful if you simply don't want to depend on iTunes for viewing your purchased & downloaded videos and have no intention to burn them to a DVD. Personally I prefer to view my videos in the BSPlayer video player (though I use an old version that has no adware and useless features).

Anyway, here's the link to the tutorial - how to burn DVD - iTunes movies. The instructions are a bit sketchy, but you should be OK.
