Hi 95% of my music is off cassettes, records and CD’s! I’m not looking to avoid buying music, or giving it to others so they can avoid buying it. It’s just the simplicity I had before with iTunes seems to me to have been removed. I have found solutions to my current situation, just find the constant changes to shore up their profits annoying. When I purchased most of my music the costs were excessive due to their protections, it looks like they are moving towards that again in one way or another. I was just wondering if there was a replacement more like iTunes and less like Music. Kind regards Peter
