For now I'd like a place like iTunes for Windows (dont necessarily want actual itunes itself) to input my FLAC and other music/mp4s and all things audio that stores the files in its own directory and so on, can apply album art etc

I don't really get the "store the files in its own directory", but for everything else have a look at Foobar2000. It may be less flashy than others, but is surprisingly powerful.

Last time I used Windows I downloaded an old version of iTunes for my music library. Rhythmbox is what I use after switching to Linux. I used Lollypop for awhile too, it looks better but was missing some features that I forget now. Both should have Windows releases.

Media Monkey is pretty robust.

Maybe too robust.

There's a lot of customization options, is what I'm saying.

Dear God its way too configurable, hahaha.

I really don't like the UI, honestly, but nothing else comes close.

For OP, maybe Foobar2000

MusicBee.

Far more friendly than foobar as a player, but as powerful as a library tool.

I've tried everything, and this was clearly the best.
