Another common query is “How do I download and install iTunes on my computer?”.
Download the latest supported version of i. Tunes for your PC., download i Tunes from Apple’s website, then click Download to download the i, and tunes installer. When prompted, click Save (instead of Run).

Tunes desktop app on your PC. It’s mostly an ecosystem play. If your content all comes from Apple, then you’re going to need i, and tunes.
