        I haven't tried for awhile but I remember I was able to access some photos and videos using Shotwell but that's about it.

          I am not worried about access data from my iPhone on my Linux machines. I am looking at ways to listen to my music library on my iPhone without iTunes.

            set your iphone into USB drive mode, connect it to 'nix machine, copy over music, disconnect, play music - no?

              That only gives you access to photos last I tried it.

                  Just chiming in that I'm with @dbeato on Google Music. Uploaded my personal collection to it years ago. I also purchase most of my music through there now as well with money I earn from Google Surveys. Easy to cache songs for offline listening as well when you're going somewhere without internet access.

                    Well, prior to Amazon dumping it, I would have easily chosen them because I use Prime and listen to Amazon Music already.

                    With Google's history of dumping products, I am extra wary of them doing the same now that Amazon has done it.

                      Yeah I do a lot of streaming through Amazon Music as well for songs I don't own.

                      I understand your lack of trust in Google to keep the product going, but I really don't know how much more assurance you can get from other providers that are lesser known that they'll be around for 5-10 years. You just gotta pick the best one at the time that looks solid and if it gets bumped, move on. That or do as @dbeato mentioned in his first post and put it into NextCloud that you can control yourself.
