This tutorial will tell you how to convert protected WMV purchased from Amazon to non-protected video for play on Microsoft Windows RT Surface tablet.
The Microsoft Surface RT tablet plays WMV videos, but not your movies purchased from Amazon Instant Video, which are also saved in .wmv format as you download them from Amazon. This is because the Amazon Instant Videos are protected Windows media that can only be played in the Amazon Unbox Video Player or on a Kindle Fire tablet. In order to play downloaded Amazon movies on Microsoft Surface RT or other Windows 8 tablets, you have to remove the protections and turn the Amazon movies and TV shows into free contents.
