Scan & Fix 50 registry issues FREECNET Editors' review
If you own an iPad, iPhone, or iPod, you don't have many options for downloading. You can stick with the closed garden of iTunes or jailbreak your phone and risk bricking it. CopyTrans Manager gives you a safer solution to put songs, movies and even third-party apps on your gadget. It gives you a more user-friendly way to have all your favorite stuff on your mobile gadget.
Though the clean interface won't blow you away, it makes it easy to find the syncing options. Since CopyTrans Manager usually finds your gadget automatically, you can start moving and downloading files right away. Files can be copied from anywhere on your computer using a simple drag-and-drop functionality. This means your entire library can go right on your gadget as long as it's the right file format. Things move a little slower when you're transferring a big block of files, but not enough to be worrisome. Though you'll probably never need it, simply because this program is very easy to manage, there's a huge help section buried in the software itself.
CopyTrans Manager succeeds in every way. It blows iTunes out of the water for most uses by offering more functionality. While it doesn't have any major standout features, it makes for the perfect default media marketplace for iFans. It gives you more control over your gadget without having to take the risks that come with jailbreaking.

"Wonderful to get all the Apple software off my PC!"
Version: CopyTrans Manager 0.989
Pros
Simple interface, and it just works. Quickly, too. Doesn't need ANY of Apple's bloatware that comes with I-Tunes. I got rid of I-Tunes and several required supporting Apple software, each of which took a llloooonnnngggg time to update, which seemed to happen way too often. Glad that's all gone, and I've got this skinny app that just works, and works simply. MUCH better than messing with I-Tunes on a PC!
Cons
None, but note that I just use it to transfer files to my phone from my PC. If you're looking for software to purchase music, I'd recommend Amazon's apps for that.
Summary
MUCH better than messing with I-Tunes on a PC!

Not any I could think of.

Intuitive, Easy to Use, Works, and its Free.

"Super easy to use, not heavy to load, the iTunes killer"
Version: CopyTrans Manager 0.989
Pros
Load super fast (especially compared to iTunes); super easy/simple to use. What else do you need?
Cons
May not be able to do some of the stuff iTunes does (but I wasn't using iTunes for that anyway, so didn't lose anything by switching).
Summary
Sick of iTunes? Try this! If you don't need some specific things that iTunes provides, this will be your pock to manage your iPod files. So glad I don't have to use iTunes anymore.
