iTunes "works" but as has been said before the search feature for Apple Music is pretty bad.
Navigation feels like I'm on an FTP site in a browser with no tabs.

I miss the free radio stations that were formerly in iTunes.
Example 1. Album art.
When I play anything I haven't played for a couple of years, the artwork often changes:
1. Randomly (i.e. not always)
2. Sometimes to a completely different, irrelevant album - e.g. The Flock by the Flock becomes Flock of Seagulls by A Flock of Seagulls
3. It does this in a manner where Time Machine thinks the file has changed but, for example, the modification date in Finder is unchanged.
Example 2. Play
Play Next - adds track to top of playlist
Play Later - adds track to top of playlist
And the difference is ...
Example 3. Ratings
Complete confusion through the app between track ratings and album ratings. So, I never set album ratings but when I play a few tracks the unplayed tracks set assigned a rating (grey not blue). Screws up smart playlists
Hallelujah! I totally agree. Bring back my CoverFlow. It was beautiful to see my covers flow across my iTunes interface. What idiot killed it?The biggest reason I dislike iTunes is the small album artwork.
I grew up with vinyl albums. LPs… huge glossy pieces of cardboard that were often an art in themselves.
Now? A tiny little square that my ageing eyes are not very happy with.
Bring back Coverflow, at least.

This is the thing I hate most. Others...I close my eyes and keep going on . But I find this "feature" a real pain in ....Example 3. Ratings

It's still there, called Internet Radio. Go to the Music pull down menu, down to edit and enable Internet Radio.I miss the free radio stations that were formerly in iTunes.
You don't have to pay, the free radio is still there, called Internet Radio. Go to the Music pull down menu, down to edit and enable Internet Radio.Same. Sucks that you have to pay now. Sucks even more that the free stations stopped working on the 3rd gen Apple TV.
Uh ... no. The only free Radio is Beats 1 (which I hate immensely). iTunes Radio is no longer available.You don't have to pay, the free radio is still there, called Internet Radio. Go to the Music pull down menu, down to edit and enable Internet Radio.

Are you meaning the "Internet Radio" stations? Those still exist. That's my favorite feature of iTunes.I miss the free radio stations that were formerly in iTunes.
Yes but is says something about getting three months of Apple Music. I'm not going to pay for that. But thanks.Are you meaning the "Internet Radio" stations? Those still exist. That's my favorite feature of iTunes.
I hate it and ignore it. I don't consider it intuitive, it's far from being user-friendly.
For music I use a dedicated mp3Player.
I manage my iPhone's (all type of) contents with Anytrans.
I see a lot of people saying that iTunes is a terrible application and needs seriously revamped. I don't really understand why people feel this way. Yes iTunes on Windows is terrible but on the Mac it works pretty well, the interface is easy to use, it sorts and keeps track of music well and has all the features you could need from a music management program. So what are your reasons for disliking it?
Thanks! I was able to locate this.
