I just heard that Apple has effectively killed iTunes for windows. They will no longer supply updates of any sort. Which means if I have MP3 music there’s no realistic way for me to put that onto my iPhone.
Now what I’m trying to figure out is if I got a new computer right now and I needed to install a piece of software to move my MP3’s onto my phone (on the basis I got a new phone) Could I download the iTunes software.?
Is iTunes even still downloadable?
If iTunes is not downloadable, how would I move music which I legally own onto my phone?
I would prefer to stay with an iPhone. So I guess the questions are about the iPhone.
My understanding is I could use Apple Music and sync my music archive from my computer onto my phone through Apple Music. But the problem is then have to keep paying Apple Music subscription, which is stupid since I already own the music.
This is great news! Now I can finally go back to using the last good version of iTunes without worrying about it accidentally updating to a later version.
Which version is that? I’m interested myself.
I have to double-check, but I think 1.7.2 was the last one with both Visualizer and Party Shuffle.
It’s fucking amazing to me that in the decade since I haven’t been able to find a music library software that has both smart playlists and something like Party Shuffle. If I had more free time I might have written one myself by now.
Thank you so much. I use iTunes to help maintain a personal mp3 library. I could and probably should use something else, but I guess I never learned. One day. But seriously, thanks for the version tip!
Please varify the info of it not being updated. It’s what I heard but still trying to confirm
