The thing is, iTunes - the music organizer part - is still one of the best ways to organize your music collection, make automated playlists, make them to sync. Apple bought iTunes and then developed it back when they made iPods and needed people to manage copying the music to their players easily, and there were some great design decisions made back then that are still present now.
However, they also piled tons of crap on the core functionality. Which sucks. But I haven't seen an application that is as good as iTunes for music library.
Anyway I switched to Spotify too, but the UI is frankly pretty terrible, especially on desktop.
- exergy 10y agoWait, Spotify UI is terrible? How would you alter it? I ask because I find it to be really good, especially since I came from playing my music on Windows Media Player and occasionally VLC(!).
- k-mcgrady 10y agoNot OP but take playlists in Spotify for a start. They push playlists like crazy and then have this silly little side bar for them that requires me to scroll if I have more than 10-15 playlists and is narrow so I can't see the full playlist names.
- jedikv 10y agowell it's a JS app firstly so it's kind of laggy and a bit of a memory hog.
