aTunes for your iPod

I was writting few days ago about alternatives for iTunes software. Nothing against Apple or any other company, just a pro Linux position: I prefer FLOSS software and I prefer run it on GNU/Linux. That's all.

So thanks to Sourceforge mail-list I've found iTunes, I don't find it in my former research so have a look on it 'cause it for three main reasons:

1. multi-platform since it is written in Java (requires java 6, uses swing for interfaces, if you wanna collaborate to the project they told us they uses Eclipse, and if you may have a look at the sources, you know, free software is like that)
2. it plays mp4 files, among others, in fact, they have choose the easy way, they relay on software installed on your system
3. user interface its very iTunes alike so faster learning curve

Last but not least, they got releases since last year and those releases are delivered on regular basis. That releases rhythm and the fact they have joined some other audio player projects makes me perceive aTunes as an interesant software to consider.
Juanjo, I hope this would help you!
