I wish somebody would create VM file system drivers that stored guest files individually on the host OS, just with an extra meta file on the host OS to keep track of how they're laid out from the low level perspective of the guest.
You want the guest OS to store data on the host OS?
You can make a directory or paritition from the host OS available via network, possibly restricted to local connection, and mount that on the guest OS. You can do that right now, using NFS, SMB, FTP, SSH, WebDAV, or whatever, and mount any of them with FUSE wherever you need them to be in the guest OS.

Tried iTunes in Wine. Didn't work.
Amarok can sync your iPod and iPhone with your local collection.
Clementine should be able to do it, too.

My friend does it with a VM and Win7.
or Read through this. I can't verify any though because I just fire up my offline windows gaming disk and use Itunes there.

Here is a good place to start - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone. The list there is not exhaustive and may a bit dated, but the information should be enough to get you started.

A Windows VM is most reliable way. If you can get it to run under WINE at all it is likely to be twitchy.
