Hey everyone, I recently got myself a thunderbolt (love it) and was wondering what would be the best "iTunes replacement" to manage all my songs and media for my phone

So tell me what you're using and why you chose it over others!

Oh, I use Windows 7

I'm using Google Music, so I stream all my music. Hopefully, you have the unlimited plan, if not using it is a BAD idea.

I have invites if you need one.
 
I use easy phone tunes. It basically just syncs your itunes library to your tbolt

Google Music. Its taken me a while to get about 8,000 songs uploaded, but I'm pleased so far... not bad for being a beta!
 
doubleTwist seems very popular, check it out.

I'll second that for doubletwist - AND it works great with my Mac.

You can use the free version and syc with a USB cord -- or -- buy the $5 version for wireless.
 
I have tried tons of music applications and the best that I have come across was Google music.
Only down side is you need unlimited data and the initial sync takes forever!!!!
HUGE advantage is that you don't need to store anything on your phone. (I have over 100 gig of music)

I use the drag and drop method, however I prefer the DoubleTwist application. My problem with the DoubleTwist sync is that you can't choose the location the music goes to, it all goes to the root of your SD card. The only player that I've found that allows you to do that is Winamp, which is another very great application, but if your on a mac you've gotta use DoubleTwist over it.

I've also got Google Music setup but haven't really used it because I've only got 10gb of music, which all fit on my SD card.
 
I use ISyncr from the market. Nothing to download on PC and will sync music, ratings and playcount both ways. If you have smart playlists them this is my recommendation.

I use two difference services, Amazon and Google. I uploaded all 300 GB of my music to Amazon and I can stream it at any time. With Google Music, I've uploaded only a select part of my library.

With Amazon, there's a definite lag that comes with having such a huge library on the cloud, since it takes a bit longer to browse through the long index of artist or albums or genres. The screen would go black, trying to load the previous page or the next list of albums, etc. But, once the streaming begins, it's seamless most of the time.

With Google, streaming is quicker, and so is the browsing experience, though it is a considerably smaller library.

The uploading experience varies greatly between the two services, but I won't talk about it right now.
 
For me it's Audiogalaxy...hands down. Access to my entire library without having to load/sync to device. Saves space on the SD card for all my other crap...

I will second that Audiogalaxy vote. I have too much audio (including audiobooks) to put on my phone or upload to either Amazon or Google Music (I do use both, though, for different things). As long as you can keep your computer on, you are good to go. It's free and within minutes you have access to every audio track on your computer. And you can "pin" as much of it as you want to your phone for offline access when you have a bad connection.

I use the plain old HTC Sync... Works great and syncs with my itunes playlists on my cpu.
 
Have to say that Google Music is GREAT!!! I love the fact that I can listen to podcasts on my phone now without any problem or lag.
 
Audiogalaxy.

I have yet to try out my Google Music but I have tried DoubleTwist and Isyncr and they just didnt do it for me. I drag and drop or audiogalaxy now.
 
I use google music as well. Playback quality is better than other streaming programs I've tried. Its a known issue that the initial upload takes for ever and it limits you to 20,000 songs. It took almost 1 week to upload my collection and got about 80% of my songs. I loaded up my SD card with some of the rest
