What is your favourite music player and why?
I've been currently using both foobar and Winamp, Winamp seems more complete, but foobar seems more light.
Btw, anyone knows any good themes for foobar or Winamp? Minimalism themes for example.
I can't listen to music on my PC, so I don't use music players. When I am at my PC, I get the urge to do something else while listening to the music, which I hate because I want to focus on whatever I am listening to.
I don't like just lying down and listening to music either, because it feels like I need to get at least some physical activity for my body.
So I always listen to my music when I am going somewhere, or when I take a walk, which I do every night anyway. My walks are usually long enough for a whole album.

What type of music you listen to? Maybe you need some new stuff, just saying.
foobar
it's fast, light and has a lot of useful components
>>61436297
Can you please say what add-ons you are using?
>>61436329
i'm using this skin http://noha-ra.deviantart.com/art/Aubergine-Foobar-Skin-453955370
some addons are required to get this skin to work, but it's all stated on the devianart page. if you got any questions/problems, just ask me
>>61436283
I don't know, a lot of different stuff. And I listen to new albums pretty regularly, so that's not it.
Talking walks is just very stimulating to me. I need something interesting to do while I walk, and I need something mundane to do while I listen to music. It's the perfect fit, but once I started that, I couldn't really listen to music any other way.
>>61436399
Thank you man
>>61436402
Then I understand.
>>61436179
Faggot. I posted this in your abandoned thread on /g/ and now I have to post it again.
No skins or other bloat on my fb2k. I've been using this perfect, clean setup for like 150 years now.

I think OP is basically me, basic bitch layout, pleb taste and all
>>61436939
Good music taste
Why would anyone choose anything over foobar2000?
Everything you can do on a music player can be done on foobar (yet not everything that can be done on foobar can be done by other music players)
MusicBee is god tier
>>61436978
MusicBee has the advantage of looking good ootb, but that's about it. It's not even "simplier" per se, because menus and preferences in MusicBee are horrible mess.
>>61437006
>simpler*
Anything other than foobar is trash
>>61436179
>Winamp seems more complete
In what way?
>>61437204
Not gonna lie senpai, that looks like dogshit.
>>61437276
Ngl senpai, a lot of these are pretty ugly
>>61437341
Thats because none of you niggas know shit about pretty design
>>61437341
>>61437365
i feel like my setup is pretty choice tho
foobar is the player.
>>61437204
I really like this one. I don't think it looks like dogshit, anon : )
>>61436239
I know what you mean man.
When I was in school music was a constant.
Now I'm at home or at work.
Can't listen to music at work and at home I need to do other things too.
Walking to work though; 25 minutes of just the music.
Mine right now.
MusicBee. Looks great, has all the features I want and is customizable
Foobar for customization. Wish the lyrics plugin wasn't dogshit though.
>>61436402
literally my life,I know the struggle faam
does it actually make a difference? I've only ever used itunes, plus it's free.
foobar since winamp stopped working properly
r8
>>61439155
ugly as shit
>>61438948
this is probably the only good music bee Ive ever seen. good job anon
>>61439243
>>61438948
>>61436939
Add-on an theme name please?
>>61438844
anything is better than itunes you filthy pleb
>>61439301
You have to spend a few minutes to tinker with it because the themes only seem to change the colors and fonts. Its pretty easy to edit though.
Mine >>61439243 is DarkRED flat though
It just werks.
>>61439385
Thank you!
Anybody here use clementine?
>>61440218
don't know that one
Rate me and I'll rate you!
>>61440434
Brasileiro?
>>61440556
Chilean
>>61439155
so ugly. but what do you have from Jeff Mangum?
Any reason I should switch from Winamp to musicbee or foobar? Winamp's default theme (bento box black) is cozy and easy to navigate as fuck.
>>61441328
Everything you can do on any music player can be done on foobar.
I hope that helps.

>>61437642
Uuuuuh, I uploaded that (Pega Monstro) to what.cd! Soadroxs please tell me it's you
>>61441447
Fuck off, FOSSturd.
>>61441819
Triggered
>>61437001
Ya, my zune finally died so I had to find a new player for my desktop and im loving music bee.
>>61441447
Is that foobar? If yes, with what?
>>61442281
Not foobar2000, it's a CLI player for GNU/Linux, probably ncmpcpp
>>61436179

You know man, my autism is too damn high
I use iTunes. It looks neat and everything posted so far looks like shit, but I'm ready to be convinced otherwise since I'm a casual.
>>61438761
The lyrics plugin is great once you manually edit all 10000+ lyric files you have saved to have the same formatting a grammatical rules. It's great!
>>61442367
>hating on pink guy
Full pleb.
i'm a big musicbee fan, its clean as hell and has nice tagging features.
Anything like foobar for osx?
Sorry
>>61443452
Suicide.
Foobar users, how can I download album art like musicbee does where I can choose the best one, right now I have a plugin that downloads the cover when I play a song and sometimes it just downloads random google images when can't find shit
>>61437036
Excellent taste f a m
>>61443657
Use discogs tagging. It will automatically add the album art too.
>>61443657
Use foo_uie_biography. It grabs pics off last.fm.
>>61443860
I have the discog tagger but does it download it in the same folder or embed it in the music file?
>>61443988
thanks, will check it since haven't found a problem with last.fm covers while using musicbee
>>61443392
good taste for a trip
foobar2000
>>61441658
No, it's not me. Are you portuguese?
>>61444021
Folder, but you can also embed it if you want.
>spending all that time customising your foobar for something that only fellow anons will see
I can't believe you guys bought the foobar meme
MusicBee users: Cool guys, good taste and have good style
Foobar2000 users: Literally autistic, actually keep spaghetti in their pockets
>>61446529
>customization is only a visual thing
Found the retard.
>>61436179
foobar is the one
I was a foobar user for like 3 years after fucking it up and going back is a pain in the ass because plugins
With musicbee I got everything just after installing, the scrobbler, musicbrainz tagger, cover search, etc.
And the compact/mini player option is great
