Let me know when I can sync music and podcasts from my music library to my iPhone without a desktop then I might consider believing this post pc mumbo-jumbo.


Do you want to know when you can sync your music library/podcasts to your iPhone without a desktop?

Or do you want to know when the average user can sync her music library/podcasts to an iPhone without a desktop?

Spotify (or even just iCloud) + a podcast app like Downcast meet the needs of average users today.


Doesn't iCloud do this now? (Not an iPhone user, so I can't confirm or deny.)

Personally I get my music onto my Android phone with a MOG subscription, and I sync a number of other things with Dropbox.


If you want the benefits of iTunes in the Cloud for music you haven’t purchased from iTunes, iTunes Match is the perfect solution. It’s built right into the iTunes app on your Mac or PC and the Music app on your iOS devices. And it lets you store your entire collection, including music you’ve imported from CDs or purchased somewhere other than iTunes. For just $24.99 a year.

For just $24.99 a year . . . hmm no.


With iTunes match you can do this already.


From Apple:
