Parallels and iTunes ? under Catalina

1) You can safely upgrade to the latest version of Parallels. Your Windows installation will stay the same (whether in a file, or on a Bootcamp partition), but will update Parallels Tools.
2) Replacing iTunes with Music is one of the best things in Catalina. It just works. Your iOS devices are no longer handled via Music, but rather via the Finder.

Sorry for the Off topic question, I'm a recent Windows to Mac convert and I am wondering, I converted to Mac because I was sick of Windows and wanted nothing to do with Microsoft anymore, as a Mac user, what makes you wanna use Parallels or anything from Windows?
because some software I use for my business is only available for Windows.....and for some reason, Windows 10 runs without any issues in Parallel, never had any problems with Windows 10 and Windows 7 before that.
ok thanks
on Itunes, is still possible to get albums? I've not been able to buy everything I want and have a wishlist. Will this expire? I don't have the funds to get the many ones I want at the moment.
I have no iOS devices anyway so I only have the iPod Classic 160 GB; iPod Nano 2GB which will need iTunes to be managed. Unless I am mistaken because I thought the iOS devices were all touch like the ipod touch.
A question on future proofing. So music will handle everything purchased through iTunes that needs to be authorized.? Which I assume can't work with my iPod Classic or Nano as a player then I should get something else? I hate the phones as music players and want to use my iPods until they die like my 1st Gen Shuffle.

Your iPos also run iOS... albeit an old version. And, the iPods do show up in Finder in Catalina, and you sync as normally, using the Finder. One thing though, you may need to reset the iPod Classic - some people have had issues with syncing until they did that...
