Apple plans to give up its famous iTunes program after the developers' conference, which will take place within days, the move comes 20 years after its launch.

According to the British Independent website, rumors have surfaced over the past years about the company's intention to close the service and separate its various sections in the form of separate applications such as movies, music and podcasts, so many of the audio-related features are expected to be transferred to the company's Apple Music application.

ITunes has been a major revolution in its field when it started, due to its ease of use, especially in music synchronization, but today there are competing third-party applications such as Spotify, which allows you to sync without using the Apple account, and with the evolution of devices and independence more and more, no longer Phones need computers to run through programs such as iTunes, the application has become a heavy burden, which may be why Apple's move to close iTunes.
