A comment on the problem "Unable to play FairPlay (M4P) files, even with the QuickTime Playback Songbird extension installed and QuickTime running." in Songbird:
Meh, it's okay. I'm just thankful someone's finally responding to this.
I just tried uninstalling and reinstalling the plugin... no luck, sadly. =( – Tim L., on February 12, 2009 11:01

Yes, specifically QuickTime 7.5.5. I've tried using Songbird with the taskbar icon both on and off, both to no avail. – Tim L., on February 11, 2009 20:55
A comment on the problem "Apple still got me handcuffed..." in Songbird:
Alas, that's how they get you. Yes, most current tracks are now DRM free. However, for tracks you purchased before, you must pay to upgrade. For someone that's built up an extensive library (like myself), that costs about $50. And I'm broke. =( – Tim L., on January 17, 2009 10:21

I'm also having issues playing back iTunes tracks. I reported this about two weeks ago... unfortunately, no reply so far.

Unable to play FairPlay (M4P) files, even with the QuickTime Playback Songbird extension installed and QuickTime running.Unable to play FairPlay (M4P) files, even with the QuickTime Playback Songbird extension installed and QuickTime running.
Running Songbird 1.0.0, Build 860 and QuickTime 7.5.5. Have installed the QuickTime Playback Songbird Extension and am running QuickTime in the taskbar. I am running Songbird on Windows Vista.
When I attempt to play a FairPlay file using Songbird, the program loads for a couple of seconds, then the GUI starts acting as if the media file is playing (it shows the song title and artist in the player and the time bar moves), however no sound is played.
This problem is only related to M4P files. All other media formats play with no problems.
