Apple has made the shocking decision to kill off iTunes after more than 20 years.

At their annual Worldwide Developers Conference in San Jose, California next Monday, the tech giant announced plans to phase it out. The platform has given Mac and PC users alike the power to watch movies and TV shows, hear podcasts, and manage their devices since the 90s, but now the company is launching three new apps for the Mac – Music, TV, and Podcasts – to replace iTunes, and customers can manage their Apple gadgets through the Music app.

Social media users have reacted to the news with alarm, with many bemoaning the loss of a platform that made music so accessible for so long. Check out some of the Twitter statuses about the announcement below:
