MediaMonkey is the best

It can handle podcasts relatively well, and it also syncs with all Apple devices (iPods, iPod touches, iPads, and iPhones). burns and rips cds well too.

its very organized, and it's got a lot of cool, useful features like Party Mode, Sleep timer, and lots of others. skinnable as well.

also, by far the most important part, IT RUNS 1000X FASTER THAN FUCKING ITUNES. what a load of shit that program is.

winamp hasn't been good since about 4 years ago...

Plenty of good iTunes alts, but not so much for the store. I wish they'd quit heavily promoting their other software on Itunes. It is enough to make you search for an alternative.
