VLC media playerLinux vs Apple MusicWindows

VLC media player como alternativa Linux ao Apple Music

Atualizado em 29 de outubro de 2026

Nossa avaliação

VLC media player can replace Apple Music for users who only need to play local music files and basic streaming from other services. It handles most audio formats, supports playlists, and can stream internet radio or podcasts. However, it lacks Apple‑specific features such as iCloud library sync, curated radio stations, and integration with Apple Music’s catalog. It is best suited for users who want a free, open‑source player without the Apple ecosystem.

VLC is a general multimedia player, not focused on music only

Abrindo seus arquivos do Apple Music

VLC can open standard audio files (MP3, AAC, FLAC, etc.) but cannot read Apple Music’s protected iTunes Store purchases or Apple‑specific library files. Exporting from Apple Music to a format VLC understands requires converting or downloading the files first. If the files are already in a common format, VLC will play them without issue.

Export or download your local music files from Apple Music into a common format (MP3, AAC, etc.).
Create or import your playlists into VLC using the Playlist editor.
Add any internet radio or podcast URLs to VLC’s Playlist or use the Stream > Open Network Stream option.
Configure VLC’s desktop notifications in Preferences > Interface > Notifications to get track alerts.
Optional: Install VLC from Flathub or your distro’s package manager for the latest version 3.0.23.
Backup your Apple Music library data before removing the Windows client if you wish to free up space.
