The news that macOS 10.15, due out later this year, will be accompanied by a standalone music app was welcome news for those who don't like iTunes. However, it looks like the Music app will be heavily based on the iTunes code. This means that the music app could look a lot like iTunes. So while it comes with popular iTunes features like smart playlists, iOS syncing, and disc burning, it'll disappoint anyone wanting a more revolutionary change. The news comes from 9to5Mac, which claims that a source close to the development of macOS 10.15 has come in contact with information about the new app.
without marzipan
When news of the standalone music app in macOS 10.15 broke, it was assumed that it would be made with Apple's Marzipan technology, which enables iOS apps to run on Macs. The hope was that Apple would produce a music app compatible with iPods, iPads, iPhones, and Mac computers. However, it now appears that the MacOS 10.15 Music app will have little in common, at least in terms of code, with its iOS counterpart, and that it will be an application. Standard AppKit. It's unfortunate that Apple's exciting vision for cross-platform apps won't be used in the Music app anytime soon, but at least MacOS 10.15 users will have a version of iTunes dedicated solely to music. .
