I just heard that Apple has effectively killed iTunes for windows. They will no longer supply updates of any sort. Which means if I have MP3 music there’s no realistic way for me to put that onto my iPhone.
Now what I’m trying to figure out is if I got a new computer right now and I needed to install a piece of software to move my MP3’s onto my phone (on the basis I got a new phone) Could I download the iTunes software.?
Is iTunes even still downloadable?
If iTunes is not downloadable, how would I move music which I legally own onto my phone?
I would prefer to stay with an iPhone. So I guess the questions are about the iPhone.
My understanding is I could use Apple Music and sync my music archive from my computer onto my phone through Apple Music. But the problem is then have to keep paying Apple Music subscription, which is stupid since I already own the music.
… to Android
I don’t want to complicate anything. She only uses it for the browser and texting. No need to have her learn a new OS. Apple has been just fine for what she needs.
If she only uses the browser and texting, whats to learn that’s different?
I actually push my family members to buy Apple products because then I dont have to provide tech support but tbh if their usage is just tapping on like 3 different icons, there’s really no difference between the two from a UI point of view. And a mid-range Android phone that allows you to tape those 3 icons is probably 1/5th the cost of an iPhone.
Not worth transitioning and getting things set back up. Sometimes it’s easier to just stay with the old and leave the new to the willing.
