> For those who don’t care how their phone is backed up, iTunes is the only way to fully backup their phone at all without paying for iCloud.
I'm unclear by this statement. iTunes backups are technically a more 'full' backup than the iCloud ones, because iCloud will avoid caches, files marked as not-to-backup, and will not back up files which are part of app packages (and can just be downloaded again). But you can do an iCloud backup without paying a cent - you'll just hit a storage limit with sufficient data/devices and have to start paying for additional storage.

There was an article here the other day about http://musi.sh
> I can’t wait until I’m not forced to use iTunes.
I thought the hold-up was that it was cross platform between Mac and Windows - but the Win 10 version is still the same old crap.
