I use (when forced to <G>) gaim to talk to people on yahoo + AOL messenger networks. I dont know how complete are gaim features compared to the original commercial products.

iTunes, natively, no. 
I dont know whether u can run it under Wine.

if those are just your requirements, it may be easier for you to use MacOSX. but you don't say what has tired you of Windows...some things are similar (closed source, commercial), lots of other things are very different. and...some of that applies to FreeBSD too, i suspect.

Give us more info and we may be able to help you better,
