Best iTunes alternatives

iTunes is widely used around the world, mainly because iOS devices are very popular and they rely on iTunes to handle media transfers, software updates and more. Although the iPhone, iPad and other devices don’t depend on iTunes as much as they used to, this is just because even the drivers for iDevices are only installed on your computer once you install iTunes. Although iTunes has a great looking interface, there are some flaws that affect your experience with the application. The software packs a lot of features, which makes it cluttered. If you are looking for an option that works as an alternative that you can use along with iTunes (you would still need to run it in the background), but that is suitable for daily use, you can consider any of the simple options in our list. The applications in this list are focused on managing and playing media, but they can also help with other aspects like device management and syncing.

Tomahawak

To enjoy advanced media management capabilities, consider Tomahawak. This impressive tool stands out for offering support for a wide range of platforms including Linux, Mac, Android and Windows. In addition, it works with popular services like Spotify, Last.fm and Soundcloud. You can also share what you are listening to with your friends and followers on Facebook and Twitter. If there is a particular song that you want to listen to, even if it is not in your personal music library, you can rely on Tomahawk. It will go through all the sources available to locate the best version of the song.

Ecoute

Ecoute stands out for its innovative interface that ensures that you can easily manage the functions available. Some elements are only visible when using larger displays.

Ecoute also supports Facebook, Twitter and other popular social media sites. The iOS app can be used as an alternative music player on your iPhone, iPod or iPad.

doubleTwist

This flexible media player supports multiple platforms, and it is designed to help you to manage your library and to sync it across devices connected to a WiFi connection. It is one of the best solutions for Mac and Android users, particularly when it comes to syncing the music library with iTunes. doubleTwist is an effective music player, but it doesn’t support advanced features. Still, if you prefer simplicity and an interface that you can get familiar with very easily, doubleTwist is the way to go.
