I use iTunes for my Note8. How else does one keep their music metadata, playlists, and play counts the same across a Windows PC, iPhone, iPod Nano, iPad, and Note?Itunes..downloading music..transferring files to your laptop outside the Apple Ecosystem...can't use multiple apps in split screen. Limited. Like a kid trapped in a bubble.
My iTunes smart playlist manage themselves based off my listening habits and with the Android app iSyncr all those devices have the same playlist.
Between iSyncr and Google Voice / Hangouts I can seamlessly switch phones and keep things the same between them.
