One of the special features of the computer software was that people were able to buy merchandise and download games, application, music videos and music at the iTunes store, while the iTunes software itself was free. iTunes is very useful to those who want to store and play various songs and watch music videos on their personal computers. While iTunes is useful, it uses files that are coded in the iTunes format, and this format is not compatible with some other players and applications. Therefore, a user may need to convert their iTunes music files into MP3 file format which is virtually the most popular file format in existence.
