US classrooms have been flooded with Chromebooks recently. Students are likely to use iPhones alongside Chromebooks as their main devices. Since Google and Apple are from different companies, their ecosystems’ incompatibility leads to a barrier between the two.

iTunes would have a greater impact on Windows users since they make up a much bigger market. The iTunes library would be useful to many people working 9-5 (and they would pay to expand it). iTunes on Windows was likely successful because Apple believed it would earn more than it cost.

Using iTunes on a Chromebook can be challenging, as the Chromebook operating system is designed to be more lightweight and streamlined than traditional desktop operating systems like Windows or macOS. While there isn’t a dedicated iTunes app for Chromebook, a few workarounds can allow you to use iTunes on your device. One option is to use virtual machine software to run Windows on your Chromebook, allowing you to install and use iTunes.

Another option is to use a cloud-based music service like Google Play Music or Spotify, which can offer many of the same features as iTunes without requiring you to install any software. While using iTunes on a Chromebook may not be as straightforward as on a traditional computer, with a bit of effort and experimentation, it is possible to enjoy your favorite music and media on your Chromebook device.
