On June 8, 2015, Apple announced Apple Music service and launched it on Jin over 100 countries worldwide. However, M4P file extension came to our sight again from 2015 June when Apple Music debuted. Most users have replaced them with M4A or MP3 files. M4P file format for iTunes Store digital song was only a history now. Luckily, users can convert iTunes Store M4P to MP3 by the process of burning M4P to audio CD and then ripping audio CD to MP3, or using virtual CD-RW burner to avoid using real CD-R discs. Apple didn't provide the option of upgrading selected songs. You need to upgrade all the M4P songs to M4A, or upgrade none of them. Apple allowed users to pay some fees, depending on the amount of M4P songs to upgrade all downloaded M4P files to M4A. In 2009 March, Apple launched iTunes Plus which started to sell 256kbps unprotected AAC audio in M4A format which is much more inconvenient and can be played on more devices including Sony Walkman, PSP and MP3 players, where you could't play the M4P songs you have purchased. To play the M4P songs from iPod Nano/Shuffle/Classic, you need to transfer the M4P songs from authorized computer. To play the songs on your computer or iPhone/iPod Touch (iPad hadn't been released at that time), you need to sign in your Apple ID and authorize your devices. The downloaded songs were in M4P (*.m4p) format and they can be only played on authorized computers and Apple devices including iPod Touch, iPod Nano/Shuffle/Classic and iPhone. Once you purchased a song or an album from iTunes Store, you can download the song or the album to your Windows/Mac computer. Apple launched iTunes Store on 2003 April and it sold millions of songs in iTunes Store. The first period of M4P usage is from 2003 April to 2009 March. In this article, we will help you learn M4P file format clearly. M4P file extension appeared in two different periods, which may cause some confusion.
