I run linux, how do I get iTunes?

I no longer have a windows or mac OS that is current any longer. I have migrated to Linux and need to know how I get iTunes so I can get my music purchases?

Hi,


I use Oracle VirtualBox https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads


Install a copy of windows on your VM, download and install iTunes. You will have to mess around with the ports to get USB to work and recognize your device if you are going to use it to sync, but I was able to get this working a while back on Debian based system.


There is no native iTunes app for Linux. You could use WINE, and install an older version, that MAY work, but I had no success with it.
