Strip Personal Info from iTunes Plus Tracks

iTunes Plus is great in that it offers you DRM-free tracks at a higher sound quality. But it's not so great that Apple embeds personal information in each track, in kind of a digital watermark. This way Apple or the RIAA could track you down if you posted an iTunes Plus track on a file sharing site, for example.

Fortunately, somebody has already figured out a way to strip that personal information out of the DRM-free tracks. Privatunes is a free utility you can use to make your iTunes Plus tracks nice and clean, and totally untraceable. Take that, Apple!
