Go to "date added" in your iTunes. What is the first track on there?

Mine:

Since You've Been Gone - Rainbow [Down to Earth]

That's a good question. I use iTunes to load music on to the IPod then delete the music from my computer because it just doesn't have the memory space to accommodate all the songs.

On a more serious note, don't you actually download music from ITunes? The title says "downloaded to". Isn't that an oxymoron? You can't "download to" a web site; you either "download from" or "upload to". Or do I totally not understand how any of this newfangled crap works?

The "date added" field shows the date you added a particular song to your personal iTunes account. You can add songs by either purchasing them from iTunes or ripping them from physical copies and uploading them to your iTunes account.

In my defence I don't download itunes music as I always buy physical copies (and if I do downloads it;s always Bandcamp.)

So please bear in mind that I shoved a whole flash drive from my musical file and this was the one that it added first (Honest!!)

Thanks for the education. I had no idea that's how it worked.

So you can upload songs to your ITunes account so you can listen to stuff you already own?

So how does that make any sense? Why wouldn't I just rip stuff I already own to wherever I wanted to hear it from? For instance, I've ripped a TON of music to a microcard that I use in a Sandisc player. I just ripped stuff to my PC then transferred it to the microcard. Why go through all the trouble of dealing with ITunes?

I have to be missing something here.

iTunes is just a very easily maneuverable library.  I have 200,000 [approx] songs in my library.  Takes two secs to get it transferred to my phone or iPod. I buy a lot of mp3's from amazon cuz it is better for me to spend $9.99 for an album that is out of print or a $30 import. They go right into my iTunes and I can crank them instantly any where.

iTunes is merely a music player/management system - like Windows Media Player, etc... - and it's free to download and use. You can also pay to download songs from the iTunes store - they are normally $1.29 each and $9.99 for most albums. I have used iTunes for years to manage my music by ripping all my physical formats to mp3. I also use a service called iTunes Match which allows me to upload all my songs to the iTunes cloud and then I can access them anywhere. Normally, I access them through my iPhone. Right now I have 9,367 songs stored on my iPhone, but I have tens of thousands more stored in the cloud on iTunes Match.

There are many other services like this - for instance Amazon Music - and they are all very similar. I use iTunes because I've been using it for close to 15 years and using iTunes on my iPhone is much simpler than having a separate player and media for my music. I always have my phone with me and therefore, I always have my entire music collection with me.

I guess that's the part I don't understand.

If I've already paid to download something and it's now on my computer's hard drive, why would I bother uploading it to ITunes? I can just now rip the music wherever I want.

I guess I'm just an old fart...

Well the whole concept of this thread eludes me so I guess I'll leave it to you "youngsters".

My apologies if I derailed the original intent.

I don't have an iPhone, but my wife once did. I did have iTunes on the desktop computer back then.

Beats me what music was in there. I do remember it was not combatible with .wma, which was what my ripped music was stored as.

I don't use iTunes even though I have an iPhone. I use Amazon cloud player and prefer it over iTunes. I'm a prime member so there's a lot of albums you can download to your device and not pay extra.

With that being said, I don't download single songs only albums. The first album was Widow- Life's Blood.

Well, the first albums I bought off Itunes were Barren Cross-Atomic Arena and Theocracy-As The World Bleeds. I do download quite often, but mostly off amazon now which is easier for me (most of the stuff I download is stuff I cant find in stores, like the most recent Great White album).

I use Google Play Music. Free, and you can stream your music with (probably) any device with internet access. You can also dowload from the cloud, once you've ripped and uploaded your collection.

My wife is twelve years younger than me and when we first started dating (2012) she had ITunes (I remember buying her some gift cards for the site) and I still had a disc man! Ha! Truth be told, I didn't actually use the thing. I recall her saying to me "oh, you'll come around" and now our home has a mancave with about 4,000 CD's, Records, and Cassettes in it. Lol.

Nope. I'm not in on the party either. I have an iPhone, but as of yet, I don't use iTunes. But I'll let you know when I do. What a Face
