compatible with iTunes videos. Wait, is there a way to stream iTunes movies to
Amazon Fire TV for playing? Fortunately, the answer is yes. Here, in this article,
you will get the answer to do that.
Part 1. Main Solutions to Stream iTunes DRM Videos to Amazon Fire TV
There are two methods for you to play
iTunes movies and TV shows on Amazon Fire TV. One of the common ways is using
AirPlay apps, since there are multiple AirPlay apps created by various
third-party developers to change some devices into an AirPlay receiver.
Reflector is such an app which can be installed into Amazon Fire TV. With such
an app running, you can easily stream iTunes videos from your iOS devices like
iPhone, iPad, iPod by using the AirPlay feature. But everything has two sides,
there may be a minor inconvenience to keep the Reflector running on the Amazon
Fire TV and you can't backup the videos to watch any time.
In order to make
up the disadvantage of the first solution, perhaps you can use the other way to
achieve it that is to liberate iTunes videos from FairPlay DRM protection
losslessly. Why not have a try of an iTunes DRM unlocking tool like DRmare iTunes to Amazon Fire TV Converter. It supports all kinds of iTunes DRM videos purchased
and rented. With the help of this smart tool, you can convert iTunes movies, TV
shows, music videos with zero quality loss and 30X faster speed. It is a

restrictions and the converted iTunes video episodes will be playable on Amazon
Fire Play and any other devices at anytime. What’s more, you are able to
