Alternatives to iTunes?

Post by Duke »

So what the next best Music manager outside of iTunes?

I'm looking for something that is lightweight but works similar in moving the music files into a artist/album folder structure while also & renaming the files automatically, so the correct album art is assigned just like Apple's POS.

I use MusicBee mainly. It's extremely customisable. Dopamine is a cool new music player with very modern design but doesn't have the same level of customisation.

Google play music.

You can upload all your music into the cloud and play it from anywhere!

If you are on desktop a lot there is this player to have a look at.

It pulls from the cloud, there isnt the option to play from your hard drive due to Google not having the API support, but it is an option if you want to keep your music playing and close off your browser.
