Music has taken many forms since the invention of the gramophone in 1887. First there were vinyl records, then cassette tapes, then CDs. Fast forward to now. The era of music stored on CDs is coming to a close, and "digital music" (music stored in files on your computer's hard drive) is rapidly replacing it. To manage your collection of digital music, you use a specialized music-managing application. And Apple's iTunes is widely considered to be the best available.

iTunes lets you:

  • Organize the music files on your Mac.
  • Turn your current CD collection into digital files.
  • Burn custom mix CDs.
  • Manage your iPod.
  • Legally download a variety of media (music, video, and more) from the internet.
