I downloaded old iTunes. I'm struck by how much more customizable it is than Apple Music and the rest of it.

My iPod is also 17-year-old. 120GB. Works perfectly. Even got a Bluetooth adapter. No ads, no subscriptions, no tracking. Just a durable, functional device. Enshittification is real.

@ayoub That's actually good new in a way. It means creating such technology independently is actually not that hard if thos companys had it so many years ago when there were not as many open source projects to pick from.
