To get your downloaded Amazon WMV videos freely playback on Surface 2, the best way is to remove DRM and record them before transferring. Here is an easy guide to help you.
"I recently downloaded some wmv format videos from Amazon and they work well on their Amazon Unbox they supplied me, but I’d like to transfer wmv video to a Surface 2 tablet so I can watch them on the big screen. I’ve tried many different programs but nothing seems to work. Any help would be appreciated”.
