It's Windows only, but it shows the basic idea of using a virtual CD
burner will work to strip DRM from iTunes purchases.

Removes iTunes DRM with Virtual CD Burner [Featured Windows Download]
via Lifehacker by Kevin Purdy on 10/28/08
Windows only: DVDneXtCOPY iTurns Free provides a clever work-around to
stripping audio tracks purchased from the iTunes Music Store—and,
theoretically, other protected, purchased tracks—of their DRM. The free
application installs a virtual CD burner on your Windows system, so
your only job is to create a playlist, hit "Burn Disc," and choose
the "TurnsDrive" when prompted. If the app is running in your system
tray, it catches the "burning," and works in the background to split
the virtual disc back into unprotected MP3s. Album art, tags, and other
metadata are all preserved, and while the burning process took
unusually long for one batch of protected MP3s, it delivered on the
restriction-free goods. You'll have to have authorized access to play
and burn the tracks you want to unlock, but since iTunes allows
unlimited CD burns (if you change the playlist just a bit), you're
pretty much in the clear. DVDneXtCOPY iTurns Free is a free download
for Windows systems only; a paid version adds OGG and other formats and
a few other options. DVDneXtCOPY iTurns Free [via FreewareGenius.com]
