Do you need to purchase a video from amazon in order to convert it or can you just rent a copy?

This is a screen scraper, it plays the video and takes pictures of the frames. This can result in choppy conversion if you do not have a fast computer. Works ok. The trial version only lets you only record one minute. The cost of the software is a little expensive.

When I first started purchasing Amazon instant videos, I would watch them on my computer. And, later I was lucky enough to get an ipod as a Christmas gift. I just assumed I would be able to watch my videos and listen to my music from Amazon instant video on the Apple device; but no such luck. Your software made this dream a reality. Thank you so much.

So you can actually play Amazon video files on an ipad once you have used this converter? That's a very cool thing to know. I want to download this software right away and try it out.

I was able to use the DRM converter to make a composite of several movies I'd purchased on Amazon Video.  I clipped my favorite scenes from each and made a top ten video that is now very popular on Youtube.  Without the DRM converter that would not have been possible as you typically cannot edit an Amazon video without conversion
