This is a big step for Microsoft as iTunes was listed as one of the primary apps keeping users from moving to the S-mode environment. This is a very similar experience to how Spotify operated when it first arrived in the store. You can download the app here but know that it will remove your previous install of iTunes.

Windows 10 users can now experience the full desktop iTunes experience with access to Apple Music and the ability to seamlessly sync with iPhones and iPads. That’s because Windows 10 S is a locked-down operating system that, unlike the standard Windows 10 and Windows 10 Pro, only allows installation of apps from the Microsoft Store.
