Hey Patrick, What are you trying to do, just rip CDs into digital files?
I still use iTunes because the OSX alternatives I tried don't sound as good using my digital streaming/DAC/stereo setup. I agree that iTunes is a bit ogre-like at times, but I always reluctantly come back to it. It's probably outdated information as I have been using it for years, but for converting formats, and for ripping outside of iTunes, I use XLD (now called X Lossless Decoder <http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/23430/x-lossless-decoder>). Don't know if it's Linux compatible. As you can imagine, there's a ton of discussions about iTunes and its alternatives on computer audio sites - probably your best bet.
