Itunes libary share

What's Hot
Anybody know if its possible to share the iTunes library content of one account with another? For example my mate has his own apple ID, but I want to transfer his library (with his consent) to my apple ID.....

Any ideas if this is possible......

  • As far as i know all your itunes music has to be installed on your pc.
    im pretty sure you cant just sign in another account and transfer music.

    what you could do, is just transfer his music onto usb, then drop into your itunes library.

    Which is illegal file sharing, however i think iTunes will allow to share music library across your family, never tried it, but who checks whether someone if family or not? and I think it may only relate to items purchased through the iTunes store.

    Family sharing is way to set up. That is allowed.

    Non family is not allowed and is illegal.

    Im sure it's possible but I don't know if setting up a shared adult account rather than a kids slave account would also give access to credit card details and the like.

  • Your right it is illegal. But even if you do it the 'family sharing' way, the end result is the same.
    music will be in the ownership of somebody that hasnt paid for it.
