The primary developers of the software moved to Apple as part of the acquisition, and simplified SoundJam's user interface, added the ability to burn CDs, and removed its recording feature and skin support. SoundJam MP, released by Casady & Greene in 1998, was renamed 'iTunes' when Apple purchased it in 2000.

This change would not affect Windows or older macOS versions. Finder would take over the device management capabilities.

On June 3, 2019, Apple announced that iTunes in macOS Catalina would be replaced by separate apps, namely Music, Podcasts, and TV. Though well received in its early years, iTunes soon received increasingly significant criticism for a bloated user experience, with Apple adopting an all-encompassing feature-set in iTunes rather than sticking to its original music-based purpose. Newer iOS devices have less reliance on iTunes in order to function, though it can still be used to back up the contents of mobile devices, as well as to share files with personal computers. Until the release of iOS 5 in 2011, all iPhones, iPod Touches and iPads required iTunes for activation and updating mobile apps. Starting in 2005, Apple expanded on the core music features with support for digital video, podcasts, e-books, and mobile apps purchased from the iOS App Store. Originally announced by CEO Steve Jobs on January 9, 2001, iTunes' original and main focus was music, with a library offering organization, collection, and storage of users' music collections. Options for sound optimizations exist, as well as ways to wirelessly share the iTunes library. Developed by Apple Inc., it is used to purchase, play, download, and organize digital multimedia, on personal computers running the macOS and Windows operating systems, and can be used to rip songs from CDs, as well as play content with the use of dynamic, smart playlists.

ITunes ( / Л€ aЙЄ t( j) uЛђ n z/) is a software program that acts as a media player, media library, mobile device management utility, and the client app for the iTunes Store.
