    What I discovered so far:

    AudioQueue: no m4p support, because quicktime is responsible for the encryption.

    NSSound: supports m4p (I assume that it is using quicktime to do it) but it definitely sucks at large sound files. (playback quality problems and performance problems)

    QTKit: Can play m4p but only if you are not starting from Xcode or the gdb. It looks like this is a protection mechanism.
