Try searching the forum... this question has been answered a dozen times.

OR check out iTunes Agent: iTunes Agent

Allows any device to sync with iTunes

sweet bro.. does iTunes Agent work faster then DT.... DT usually takes 3x per song!!!

I use iTunes Agent, but I don't notice the speed.

I just sync and do other stuff while it is syncing so I can't comment on the speed.

Check out The Missing Sync made by MarkSpace (The Missing Sync for Mobile Smartphones to Mac OS X, Windows XP and Windows Vista - Sync Mac and PC!)

It may be overkill for what you need, but I tried everything (DoubleTwist and some program I've now forgotten the name of) but they both failed 95% of the time. The Missing Sync seems to handle music, photos, and video very well. Bookmark syncing is coming in a future release as well.

The Missing Sync for Android is in beta, so I'm sure you'll find bugs. Its free while in Beta and then costs money to purchase a license once released.

Use Motorola Media Link! Just google it and download the program to your desktop. It's the Android version of Blackberry Desktop Manager and it works flawlessly. You can sync Itunes, pictures, videos, and even update the phone's software. I'm surprised more people don't know about this...

the big question is do any of these allow us to play our itunes drm music on android?

Probably not. To get DRM'd iTunes purchased songs to play on Android you would likely have to upgrade to iTunes+ at approximately $.30 a song which removes the copy protection.

+1 to that... you are finally free of Apple's grasp yet you crawl right back to their ridiculous drm-infested stack. Here's a suggestion: you already bought your music, you own it. Re-download the non-drm mp3s and simply drag and drop them to any folder on the Droid - boom, you're done!

If you use OSX, here is the iTunes agent equivalent for Mac.

Same concept though.

I tried Motorola Media Link and it copied over everything fine, except for more than half it didn't carry over the artists' names. Bunches of them say "unknown".
