So Apple has decided we can't use iTunes any more and as a PC user, Apple Music app is CRAP!!
All my VDJ playlists are read from iTunes, it's worked seamlessly for years. All my music is locally saved, ie no streaming. I've searched the forums in vain for my burning questions... hopefully someone here can shed some light.
Is there a VDJ update that enables reads the Apple Music playlists? Clearly anything added now will be in the AM file not the iTunes library.xml file. Right??
OR is there another music library that will not only import my playlists, but that can be read by Virtual DJ? I should point out that my DJ laptop has quite an old version of VDJ on it (v8.3 b4787). It's worked brilliantly since I installed if it ain't broken, don't fix it (Apple take note). This issue has only been caused by an Apple software update! Obviously what I don't want to do is update VDJ and be left with no playlists.
I always have a safety copy of the library.xml file BUT I didn't have a safe library.itl file. So having opened the new iTunes (the one that now doesn't support music), an older version won't open because it can't read the .itl file. Yea yea, I KNOW NOW!!!! FFS
I've been considering moving away from Apple for quite a while now, this really has been the last straw.
Thanks for any thoughts
