Clementine Music PlayerLinux vs Apple MusicWindows

Clementine Music Player, alternative Linux à Apple Music

Mis à jour le 29 octobre 2026

Notre avis

Clementine can replace Apple Music for users who mainly want a local music player with internet‑radio support and basic cloud storage integration. It handles local files, playlists, and offers a decent set of visualisations and tag editing tools. However, it does not provide Apple Music's subscription streaming catalogue, iCloud library sync, or the integrated radio/podcast experience that Apple Music users expect. If you are comfortable using a separate service for Apple Music streaming or don't need that catalog, Clementine is a solid free, open‑source choice.

Ouvrir vos fichiers Apple Music

Clementine can open any standard audio file (MP3, OGG, FLAC, AAC, etc.) that you might have downloaded from Apple Music, but it cannot play files protected by Apple’s DRM. Exporting Apple Music playlists is possible by exporting them to a common format (e.g., M3U) from the Apple client and then importing that file into Clementine.
