How to Sync Music to iPhone

When we refer to sync music to iPhone, we may probably mean that we don’t want to use iTunes. Although being the official and powerful syncing service for Apple devices, iTunes is somehow troublesome. Whatever files the user want to sync from iTunes to iPhone or other iOS devices, the syncing is always limited by the iTunes’ content management system. Yet, iTunes still uses this kind of system for protecting Apple users. It’s not easy to say whether this content management is right or wrong, because iTunes does protect so many Apple users and wins their trusts, however on the other hand, the limit of syncing content is really annoying.

That’s why the iTunes alternative comes into being. The iTunes alternatives are not to instead iTunes, all the software is to provide Apple users more convenience in syncing issues.
