PwnTunes : Alternative of iTunes

23 May 2010 by Vinay 7 Comments

Many people do not like iTunes (God knows I don’t) apparently, not everyone wants to synchronize their iDevice offered by Apple way, and yes even with only one computer. PwnTunes is an alternative for jailbroken iDevice including iPhone/ iPod / iPad. But if you’re not a hyper-organized music fan and just want a simple, no-nonsense tool to transfer some great tunes, pictures, or video to your iDevice PwnTunes is a great option.

PwnTunes is available in Cydia on BigBoss repo, once you install PwnTunes from Cydia, your iPhone / iPod Touch will be able to “communicate” with the computer directly, without using iTunes

The developers claim that the program allows you to:

Drag / copy to your computer music and photos from the photo album.
Add music from any computer and it will be automatically imported along with the tags (artist, album, year, etc.) Tags are supported so far only for MP3 and M4A.
Folder var / mobile / Library / downloads, which contain downloaded using Safari files will be displayed through USB.
Ability to copy any files to the device and the further use of it as a flash drive.

The program is compatible with Windows XP, Vista, 7, but hopefully only temporarily, does not support Mac OS. The big drawback for many will be the cost PwnTunes $ 12.29.
