I’m afraid being a digital music “collector” is a dead hobby.Ĭan’t fathom how column browser could go away … but here we are. I am a little worried how I am going to export music for playback in my car and with my Walkman (both of which are now done using DougScripts and iTunes), but I’ve been using Soundiiz to create matching playlists from my iTunes collection on Spotify. With the macOS Catalina “dumpster fire”, I am moving on and saying goodbye to Apple for managing my music library. It takes some getting used to, but I’ve managed to build collections that mimic (and improve upon) what I did in iTunes. It first, I was missing iTunes features for “slicing and dicing”, but I’ve learned to replacing everything I used to do in iTunes with Roon’s tag, focus and bookmark features. I use XLD for ripping/transcoding and Metadactics (macOS app) for tagging. I am learning to live without iTunes and replacing it with Roon. The world belongs to Spotify (I know Apple claims big subscriber numbers, but they are giving it away - I have a free Apple Music subscription from Verizon).

I am one of those collectors and I am as pissed as you are.īut I’ve seen this coming for a long time. How do you manage your library to gain control of a large library?
