Nag screens are very annoying, thus the moniker that they have been assigned. Fortunately there are a couple of ways to get iTunes to stop asking you to set it as the default player. However, due to personal preference or sheer reluctance to give iTunes the permissions it craves, you might not have chosen to set it as your default player. This means that any time you double-click a file that could potentially open in iTunes, that iTunes is the program that will open. But iTunes also wants desperately to be the default media playback program on your computer. You can listen to music, watch videos, and even import music directly from CDs to your iTunes library. While much of iTunes’ value does lie in its’ ability to connect with your iPhones, iPads and iPods, it is more than just a glorified file transfer application.

ITunes is a great media player in its’ own right, and one that I have used on computers that I never had any intention of connecting to an iOS device.
