DoubleTwist Ventures is a digital media interoperability company notable for having reverse engineered Apple's FairPlay DRM system. According to Fortune Magazine, DoubleTwist is offering two software products: one that would let other companies sell FairPlay-protected songs that play on the iPod, and another that would let competing hardware devices play FairPlay content.

DoubleTwist employs Jon Lech Johansen, also known as DVD Jon, as a software engineer.
