iTunes Alternative?

**Proxy** · 07-06-2010, 01:03 PM

Hi guys! I'm looking for an iTunes alternative but to no avail. I'd like something that allows me to rip songs from my wife's iPod and be able to use them on mine. Pretty much all I want to do, so any help here would be fantastic

I think winamp can do this!

-edit-
Yeah, just did it with a few songs.

I've never tried videos, but I've used it to manage my ipod nano for quite some time. I never even installed itunes.

Well, I've always used SharePod to rip it onto my hard drive so I can do whatever I want with it. Even put it on a different iPod. Still use iTunes as my main media player though.

foobar also requires a lot less memory than winamp. I'm not sure whether its iPod manager can take songs and other media off an iPod though, but I've only done that once or twice anyway.

Foobar used about the same amount of memory as winamp for me, with a playlist of 20k songs.

weird; maybe WinAmp’s a lot less memory intensive than it used to be.

You can sync films, podcasts and pretty much anything else the ipod will support via Winamp. It's a fairly good alternative which I use myself.

I use Windows Media Player

yeah but don't you have a damn zune?

I wonder why they didn't stick with brand continuity and name it xune. Typo maybe?

**Baloki** · 07-25-2010, 08:09 AM

Actually the Zune doesn't work with WMP.

**rubah** · 07-25-2010, 05:54 PM

so you have both a xune and an ipod? or you just use WMP out of habit? tell me more, baloww

I've never heard of SharePod, I'll have to look into that. I still use iTunes on my Windows boot, but I usually boot into Ubuntu Linux and they have have a default program for this called . . . erm . . . I forget.

But everyone SWEARS by Amarok which was designed to be a more powerful iTunes replacement for Windows and Linux.
