iTunes for PC (64-bit)

iTunes for PC is the best way to organize and enjoy the music, movies, and TV shows you already have — and shop for the ones you want to get. You can even listen to free streaming radio stations with iTunes Radio. The software works on Mac, PC, iPad, iPhone, iPod touch, and Apple TV.

Overview

iTunes for Windows 11/10 allows you to centralize your media collection and offers various options for managing and accessing your content. With a subscription to Apple Music, you can listen to millions of songs, and purchase music and movies from the iTunes Store. Additionally, you can sync content from your computer to your iOS devices, such as your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.

Apple Music subscribers can also discover and subscribe to podcasts, and browse free episodes and shows on various topics. The iTunes Store also offers a wide selection of movies and TV shows for purchase or rental, and audiobooks for purchase.

It also provides a convenient way to back up and update your iOS devices, and sync content to them. You can also use iCloud for Windows to access your photos, contacts, calendars, files, and more across all your devices.

While iTunes is a popular choice for buying and managing music, there are other options available such as Amazon Music for PC, Spotify, YouTube Music, and Google Play Music. These apps offer a vast library of songs through a monthly or quarterly subscription plan but do not allow for purchasing individual songs or albums.

If you're a music enthusiast who values organization and the ability to listen offline, It may be the right choice for you. The app offers high-quality sound in a variety of file formats, with the exception of WMA, and offers a free trial of Apple Music, a streaming service with millions of ad-free songs, TV shows, and movies.
