iTunes starts randomly and wont quit

When I am listening to Spotify or watching a YouTube video, iTunes will open randomly and pause whatever other music I am playing. If I quit the application it will just reopen. This happens everyday. I will restart my Mac which will fix it until the next day.

MacBook Air, macOS 14.5

iTunes freezes whenever I add a new song Whenever I have any music playing in iTunes (Apple Music) and I try to add a song not currently in my library, the music automatically freezes and the playback window goes blank, seeming to forget it was playing anything before I clicked "download" or "add to playlist". This issue has been constant on my current and previous Mac over the past few years.

iTunes stops playing and won't restart until I click on another song Just in the last couple of weeks, my iTunes has begun to stop playing songs and won't resume until I go to the app and click on a different song. It says it's playing, and the little bar below the song name is going back and forth (NOT counting down), but it won't play. When I do choose another song, it does the same thing two or three songs later. Since I'm usually either gaming or writing, it's an annoying distraction to have to flip over to iTunes just to click on the next song. I have a new Mac Mini but it was also doing this on the previous MacBook Pro I migrated from. I can't find the answer to my exact problem on the forums, most of the others regarding iTunes stopping were different issues than what I'm having and the solutions didn't apply. Thanks in advance!
