Removing DRM from WMA files...

Removing DRM from WMA files...
So I dig Audiobooks, and have downloaded a bunch by just using the "intitle" and "indexof" searches using Google. There are some I want that I cannot find already online, and recently found Overdrive, which lets you DL copies of digital media with your local library card. Overdrive has the ones I want, but they are DRM protected WMA files.
Do any of you have a good safe way of removing the DRM? I don't want to download some freeware virus infected crap, and I would prefer to not pay for any of the removal tools unless I have no other choice. Speaking of which, if you have a paid for tool that you like, please post up, as I'm sure I can find a file somewhere online with the serial number, or receive a PM with a good serial number from some compassionate HTM'er?
If any of you have an interest in Audiobooks(I prefer M4B format for the iPod), I am happy to share.

How do you get them. I've raided the local libraries for all they have and that wasnt much. I'm in my car 2.5-3 hours a day commuting and would like to do somethign useful like listening to an audio book.

As an example, the audio book "Ender's Shadow" was not found anywhere, but was on overdrive at my library. Without leaving my house, I DL'ed it through Overdrive, removed the DRM using AnalogWhole (not the best solution, but was free and converted to MP3 in the process), then converted to iPod AudioBook format (using "MP3 to iPod Audio Book Converter", also free), so now it's on my iPod so I can listen during workouts. The importance of converting to the native iPod format, was so that chaptering info would remain intact.

Good luck!
