MC is rather different than iTunes and rather different than most players.  Please come back here and ask questions as things progress and you want more information.  Read through the Wiki also.  There's a lot of good info there.

Some things in MC aren't super obvious.  Many times this is a difference in how the problem or task is approached.  You'll figure a lot of that out by reading posts here in the forum, the wiki, and of course asking your own questions.

Good luck!

Brian.

The Pono player was a JRiver white-label product, based upon MC22.
Some migration thoughts here, although they may be a little put of date.

If you liked that, MC will be very similar.

I've been on JRiver for a few months now. To be honest, as a Mac user, I find it very Mac unfriendly. By that I mean keyboard commands that are usually used for most Apple and Thrid party software on a Mac are not in JRiver causing my, by habit, to consistently make mistakes (like hitting the delete key to delete a song from a playlist, it is in the drop down menu but I keep messing up my whole view by hitting that key).

So, not here to complain, wanted to know if there was a good part of the forum to mention things that might be nice additions.

I struggle finding things in forums, probably my wording so I find the wrong info.

 I love a lot of what JRiver can do and does, just not how it works in workflow.

Recently discovered you can make the very old itunes 10 work on Mac OS X 10.11.6.
Might use JRiver to do my FLAC to ALAC, AIFF and WAV conversions and try that out.

But I'm still trying to get used to it. I do very much like that it plays FLAC.
