DRM (Digital Rights Management) is a universal term used to describe a few techniques for restricting the free use and transfer of digital media like videos, movies, music files, games.

iTunes is a developed by Apple as a common media player program for both Windows and Mac OS. In this special player, you can also purchase songs/video TV Shows from online iTunes store.

Developers for iPhone, iPod touch, and now the iPad have long complained about lack of access to the iTunes library, the file store and metadata for uploaded files. While version 3.0 of the OS provided limited playback capabilities (play/pause/stop), it was a far cry from what you’d need to build a DJ or other music app that made use of a user’s content. You couldn’t, for instance, adjust volume control, cueing, no mixing, or scratching.

With iOS 4.0, currently available for the iPhone and iPod touch, that changes. CDM has confirmed with developer Async Games that a new public API (meaning a fully supported developer tool) provides full-blown access to the iTunes library. Result: you can now, for instance, scratch audio from songs uploaded from iTunes on a Mac or PC to the device. That is likely to mean a coming flood of DJing on the iPhone and iPod touch, soon to be followed by the iPad whenever the 4.0 OS becomes available for Apple’s tablet. (Nor is this even limited in applicability to DJ apps – iTunes could become a more convenient way for syncing your own tracks and samples, or loading a playlist of backing tracks or other musical content onto your Apple mobile.)

That flood is coming, but so far, the first app to actually ship with support for the feature is Flare Scratch, a simple simulation of a turntable with touch scratch support. You can scratch any song in your iTunes library. Apparently, the API isn’t entirely perfect, but it sounds like a step in the right direction. The developers of Flare Scratch also make a more full-featured DJ tool called Baby Decks DJ for the iPad, which could mean that, with iPad support, the tablet could become an all-in-one DJ solution. (Of course, a MacBook still has one significant edge – far, far greater storage capabilities.)

Incidentally, this isn’t an issue with Google’s Android platform, which provides open access to any file stored on the user’s SD card, and complete buffer access to that media. Android suffers, however, from a different set of issues, like inconsistent handset audio drivers that can interfere with crackle-free, low-latency audio performance. (That situation looks brighter in the future, but it’s a whole other can of worms.)

Anyway, if you’re all alone on a park bench and want to scratch softly to yourself, you now have a solution. (Other videos, ranging from the useful tutorial to the somewhat frightening demo, at iflarescratch’s YouTube channel.)

I hereby open commenting to a bunch of people complaining about how this will ruin DJing and continue the slow decay of civilization itself. (Hey, I’m just the messenger. Leave me out of it.)
