Best alternative to itunes?
Now then.
I read somewhere about good (free) alternative software to itunes. Can't remember where I read it, or what it was called, bah. I'm not a fan of itunes, it hasn't even been installed on my computer for the last 6 months or so. So...what is there out there that can manage my ipod (it's an ipod classic 120gb, had it about 5 years) with all the music, photos, videos etc?
Re: Best alternative to itunes?
For a while I used to use MediaMonkey.com to manage my music collection on iPod & other devices. These days I just use spotify so not really an issue but might be worth a look unless someone has something better.

It does sync without iTunes but as they point out in the wiki you are better off leaving iTunes on the computer so you can deal with backup/restore/updates etc but only open it when you have to :P

I used Winamp for years, not sure how they are getting on now a days ? Could be worth a shot.

I use Winamp with my iPod. Just drag and drop then hit sync. Works without a hitch.
