Sync iTunes with Windows Phone?

[SurferDale]

I have a friend who has a TON of music in iTunes. They don't have a smartphone yet and are 99.9% sure they're going to get an iPhone because they know it will get their music from iTunes. Will they be able to get their iTunes music on a Windows Phone? I'd like to tell them about some Windows Phone advantages but I guess it doesn't make sense if they can't get any of their music.

there's a windows phone 7 connector in the mac app store, but yeah we need to get better options. something like what airsync is for aandroid.

I'd love to see AirSync ported to work on Windows Phone devices. DoubleTwist have worked pretty hard to make it a viable option for people who don't want to have to switch from iTunes to other platforms.

Windows connector, Download: Windows Phone 7 Connector Beta - Microsoft Download Center - Download Details works well.

Doubletwist is quite amazing, would be nice to see this in WP7

I also have a question about this. My sister has about 5-6 movies on her laptop from iTunes, can I connect it and sync it to my Windows Phone?

Like previously said, if it's a mac, use the windows phone 7 connector. If windows, zune will find the itunes music anyway and chuck it on. It's a very effortless process

Nope, the iTunes DRM prevents easy syncing to Zune, you may have to use a third party program to break/convert the DRM

This will even work with the iTunes DRM?

Wait, this article says that Tom is correct. iTunes no longer locks up their music, so you can throw all the music on to the phone without a problem. Album art may be missing, but this could be answer. Sorry for the confusion, I thought iTunes still locked up their tracks!

It's better to go with iphone to get true experience of itunes.
