Default Drm

Ok well im currently running windows vista home premium. I downloaded some music off imesh and it is DRM protected-no surprise there. After stripping the drm protection off the files with soundbite the music now sounds distorted and far to loud. Does anybody know how to get the files to sound the same way they did before stripping the drm off of the them. I have tried everydifferent file option in sound bite with every different bit rate. The files originally were wma 128kbps bit rate. I tried to strip the drm off and leave the 128 kbps wma file format and I still get distortion. I do not get any less distortion when switching file types with different bit rates. I don't know alot about cd burning so im really stuck here can anybody help?

to get rid of drm
check out

my advice is to avoid DRM carp altogether

W4M does not work with windows vista it says something ibx something that it doesnt support it so that does not work and yes i acquired these files legally. Tunebite works but everything comes out a little distorted.
