Vox was launched in 2015 I believe with some fanfare, and has had several updates since - including the Premium / Loop / Music Cloud service.

In fact, despite reviewing and checking out several of these I always ended up back at Vox - which seemed to be the only properly professional service which covered all my needs. A lot of these solutions don’t have dedicated cloud storage or both desktop and mobile apps. It quickly become obvious that a lot of the solutions out there are very much in the ‘semi’-pro category, being more social / community tools with little or no guarantees attached. The longlist was roughly as follows (alphabetical): My key criteria were Music Storage in the Cloud, alongside OSX and iOS players / music library organisers. I found the iExplorer app pretty easily and proceeded to download my music from my iPhone to my desktop.įinding a suitable Music Storage / Player solution would take more time. The first thing I had to do was try to salvage my personal library - which was still significantly in place on my iPhone - around 100 or so GB of Music. Then having decided that I had to find an alternative to iTunes which would store and maintain my library and playlists more reliably - I hunted around for suitable alternatives. If all these other vendors want to know why I suddenly stopped buying from them - then here is your answer - Apple / iTunes messed it all up for them - if anyone is Killing Music these days - this is your likely culprit. Yet iTunes made it so difficult to sync 3rd party tracks with my existing playlists that I gave up on using any 3rd party music stores. I used to download music from a number of different commercial sources - iTunes obviously, but also Amazon, 7 Digital, Beatport, Traxsource, Juno and Bandcamp. Every DJ will tell you how important it is to have a particular version of a track - there are so many details here that can vary, and you cannot substitute for instance Adele’s DJ Morten Hello Remix with just the standard album track - What on earth are you doing Apple? I ended up with various duplicate versions of tracks and playlists - and whenever I tried to rationalise a file - Apple would play some bogus normalised substitute in place of my own cherished version. And while this works well for the majority of your files - it turns out it is complete suicide for your own music library - as Apple is STILL substituting your rare and special remixes and edits for bog-standard album tracks? As my collection is about 40% specialist music - this was an unmitigated disaster for me.

I recently updated to a new primary machine - a MacBook Pro 15 and was advised to switch on iCloud storage, backup etc, for everything. I’ve lost count of how many times iTunes has mangled my 500+ playlists.

I will start this piece by saying that I’ve finally had it with Apple iTunes - that over-bloated software is now long past its sell-by-date.
