Music players
| Vk, Soundcloud or Meloman - here in Russia we have a lot of ways to pirate shit
| Vot eto povorot. Именно из-за возможности качать музон на халяву я и юзую аимп.
| I used to use Winamp for a while, but AIMP grew on me a lot. I still have a soft spot for foobar though.
| I use whatever player I find preinstalled on my pc, which right now is rhythmbox, which works just fine because I have no specific needs, I just need it to play some music. A friend of mine is an audiophile though, he has these fancy speakers which produce high quality sound so he pirates as many flac discographies as he can; he uses foobar2000.
Anyway, can some of you tell me why you chose your preferred music player?
| >>102117 AIMP has a lot of skins and stuff that look nice. That's pretty much the main reason for me.
| I absolutely love foobar2000, been using it for seven years now never thought about switching to something else even once.

>takes this long to mention mpd
everything is sad and bad and over

Don't give up yet! What makes it good, why do you like that daemon of a music player? I saw a description of it somewhere but I have no idea why I'd use it instead of something generic. Judging by your reaction you think it's awesome. Why is it awesome?
| I use MusicBee for the auto DJ function. You can do random playlists with restrictions (like only music with 5 stars that weren't played in the last 2 weeks) and like that a lot
| Foobar2k for my music that I have locally,SoundCleod for SoundCloud, and Spotify for songs I don't have yet
| I am okay with Gogle play music since I'm listening by albums and do it a lot
| I'm old school and still use Winamp. I've tried MusicBee, but it just isn't fast like Winamp is.
| MPD + ncmpcpp
| Personally I use Stellio Music player. I don't have a real good reason other than its nice UI and it gets the job done.
| I use Foobar2000 to play music on PC, and Pulsar+ for Android.
| Winamp, mostly for nostalgia reasons
| the only music player i use is foobar2000 and i wouldn't trade it for anything in the world
| I use Foobar2000 on every device i own that it supports.
| Clementine
| Aimp is really good, but it can't really handle big music libraries. I used Aimp for a good while and then moved on to MusicBee, it's a good player
| i use winamp with a anime waifu skin
| iTunes... But eventually migrating everything over to something else, maybe Foobar, depending on how customizable it is.
I just ended up liking an older iTunes layout, but of course they screwed that up, and iTunes can be a RAM hog at times
| I switched to MusicBee for tagging shit. But foobar2000 is still good. They can both do UPNP too which is fun.

| >>102202 I use MPD on my laptop. It's great with bspwm and some scripts. Fb2k is still my preference for gui players though. It can do anything I want it to do, and do it well. Sadly, MPD doesn't even work as a true server. Casting it just to stream...
| music player daemon + mpc/ncmpc
| I use iTunes but I'm down to switch it out for anything with #aesthetic skins, any recommendations?
| youtube. (dont judge, i just cant be bothered)
| VINYL.
| Spotify. The simplest and best way to support artists in my opinion.
| Foobar2000 for PC, Poweramp for mobile.
Also spotify.
| Clementime
| MusicBee is my go-to choice because no other player has as good library management and features

In the first place you support Spotify, not the artist's.
Also artists that really need support aren't on Spotify. Or is there any newcomer/beginner/amateur section? In my opinion the main income source of musicians should be live performances or any other public usage like in clubs. Streaming and selling mp3 copies is nothing im gonna pay for. If I really want to support artists I visit their concerts, go to clubs where their music is played and eventually spend money.
| >>110697 If I like an artist god knows I will go to his or her concert. I'm from Singapore and am more attached to the rap scene. You can see how it is hard for me to go for concerts like that. The best way for me to support them now is by streaming and buying their CDs, which I am planning to do but I'm a student with barely enough money to get by already, so spotify supports artists, not by alot, but its still something. Better than just pirating it off the internet for free.
| Tried musicbee and it didn't worked. The music didn't even started, so I changed to winamp bc of childhood and retro skins
| >>111552 *work *start
ye, winamp is fine, we use MusicBee and similar players only cause we have big boy libraries
| I use deezer 'cause it's free for my data plan.
But I used to use poweramp and windows media player(rarely listen to music on my pc)
| VLC, and on Linux I like cmus
| Aimp is the best!
