App Store & iTunes (TL)

What is iTunes?

iTunes is a media player and media library application developed by Apple. First released in 2001, it was initially designed only to manage and play music files. Over time, however, iTunes evolved into a more comprehensive media management tool.

Main features of iTunes include:

Music Management

Organize your music files, create albums and playlists, synchronize and play your favorite tracks.

Movies and TV Shows

iTunes allows users to purchase or rent movies and TV shows, adding them directly to their digital library.

Podcasts and Audiobooks

Users can subscribe to podcasts and manage their audiobook collections.

App Management

iTunes can be used to manage and install applications on iOS devices.

Synchronization

iTunes manages data synchronization across Apple devices, making it possible to transfer music, photos, and apps to an iPhone or iPad.

However, with macOS Catalina (10.15), Apple discontinued iTunes and replaced it with dedicated Music, Podcasts, and TV apps. Windows users can still use iTunes, while macOS users now rely on these new applications.

How to Use iTunes?

iTunes allows users to manage, purchase, and synchronize music, movies, TV shows, podcasts, and other media. Since macOS Catalina (10.15), iTunes is only available on Windows computers, while macOS uses the Music, TV, and Podcasts apps instead.
