Install iTunes on Ubuntu

I've always been an Ubuntu lover, but the only thing that holds me back from installing ubuntu on my laptop is iTunes. I have an iPad and an iPod touch and managing them without itunes is almost next to impossible, mainly because of ios upgrades.

Is there any way out?

Solution 1:

After extensive testing, I was unable to get iTunes Music Store to work - at all. Complete fail. The best I could achieve was to get the music player to work.

Frustrated, I went looking for a decent alternative. Enter Google Music...

It might be worth a look-see because it'll work no matter what device or OS you use, because it's web-based.

Being web-based, it offers way better features, like the choice of multiple downloads of music purchased and/or streaming it from anywhere from the cloud. You can also upload your music to the cloud too - upto 20,000 tracks for free. The Store music is high-quality (320kbps) mp3, which is playable on many players available today.

Sorry, not meaning it to sound like an advert, but it's really that good!
