   Amarok vs iTunes Comments

   Positive comment by Hasan Yildiz · Feb 9, 2022

   Difficult to use. It's confusing.

   Negative comment by ewanneil · Sep 13, 2021

   Not really up to the job. It made a total mess of my collection of around 40k tracks. I couldn't find anything. For example, it stuck lots of my single artist albums into "various" and missed out a whole host of second discs from double albums. To make matters worse it crashed or failed to respond more often than not. I think iTunes is pretty poor but this is considerably worse.

   Negative comment by Guest · Mar 25, 2018

   No music store. Also not available for Mac. GPL, which is copyleft, and I really don't care for copyleft. I care more for open source, but I most care that it's free. I don't hate open-source though. Any other software licensed under MIT or BSD?

    Elisa vs iTunes Comments

    Negative comment by Guest · Jan 9, 2026

    It is an audio player but doesn't really manage the library. Track/album/artist information seems to be non existent and doesn't seem to support and scraping features to make sure meta data and album art are accurate.
