One of the reasons was that iTunes kept asking me to update, like every other day. Also, I was moving away from mp3 to flac. I'm aware that iTunes can be modified to play flac, but that, plus the fact that I am not an Apple fan made me think that there was a better option out there for me. The nice thing with foobar is that I can do a portable install, which means that I can keep it on a hard drive where I have most of my music, so when switching to a new computer, I don't have to sign in to iTunes (I was terrible about remembering the password) to listen to music.
