Apple iTunes or What Else

My Apple iTunes has 2500 CDs or records on a separate hard drive on a Mac computer. All the music is in AIFF files, and the sound is excellent.  The music is streamed wirelessly using Apple Airport Express. My amp is a current Rotel Integrated with DAC and capabilities for optical or coaxial. I use both depending on my mood. The speakers are Monitor Audio Gold 100 which I love. My question is: " What other software would one recommend if I wanted to move away from Apple iTunes. Not dissatisfied but explore a change. Software must operate on Mac OS system.

Thanks for the suggestion re Apple replacing iTunes. That has to be a consideration. Need to know what apple will do with iTunes.

Like many of the comments, I have used iTunes since the beginning and like its sound quality particularly AIFF files and ease of use.I am going to evaluate and study Audirvana Plus, Roon, and Bluenote. Have been downloading a number of high resolution music from HD Tracks and they really sound good in iTunes. Tried Amarra a few years ago. It had too many issues for my system and didn't sound appreciably better than iTunes.
