What is the best program to listen to music with?>pic related
>>127575558Are you asking the question or are you answering it?
>>127575558Is there a good linux alternative to foobar?
>>127575648probably both. But what is the best one in your opinion?
>>127575672Foobar.
f2k for Windows, Deadbeef for Linux.
>>127575669Virtual machine running Windows with Foobar2000 installed.
>>127575707Foobar works perfectly fine in Wine, literally no need for VM. But Deadbeef with a couple of plugins satisfies most of my f2k needs. Audacious is fine too. Clementine is also decent, but a bit bloated and has rather slow development, same for its fork Strawberry.
>>127575558AIMP
>>127575669there is no alternative period, run it in wine
>>127575669Strawberry is what i use on Linux
>>127576945Are they moved to Qt6 already?
>>127575558Spotify
>>127577028Honestly no idea i just install from the Arch/Manjaro packages and it plays nice with jack low latency server which i need when i'm playong guitar. Used to use FooBar
>>127576945I don't especially like Strawberry but I can't find anything better.
MusicBee is a viable alternative. It reminds me of a pre-tweaked Foobar2000, in that it displays album art in a grid natively and can take Last.FM credentials too. I have autistic things that I’ve customised my Foober to have, but for anyone looking for a good looking music player with lots of pre-existing skins, Musicbee is nice.
>>127576945Can it scrobble?
>>127576945>2 GB space and memory ram loaded to play musicFoobar MOGGED niggerfree fags
Musicolet
2010 iTunes because it has the best version of coverflow.
>>127575558I used to use foobar like 10 years ago when I actually cared about getting into new music and ricing my media player and shit. But as I got older I stopped giving a shit and switched to musicbee after reinstalling Windows once because it just werks and I don't care anymore.
>>127575558youtube
>>127575558MOC
step aside, young'uns.
Foobar all day
>>127578311What is this, 2007? Nowadays 8 GB of RAM for desktop is a must, and anything that cannot do that should be either promptly retired or used for other tasks.>>127580581Became irrelevant 20 years ago. Besides, F2K is actually developed by one of the former Winamp devs.
MusicBee is comfy and doesn't look like it's from 1998
Windows: FoobarLinux: StrawberrymacOS: Dunno, the only time I listen to music on my Mac is my own stuff I'm making
Oh and Android: GoneMAD
>>127578082I don't but I'm pretty sure I remember the options to login to last.fm in the settings.
>>127578311Mine is using 219MB RAM right now, playing music
>>127577644why do you spend any amount of time looking at your music player?
>>127580581piece of shit memory hog
>>127582924I need to in order to select the music I'm going to listen to.
i use foobar with default settings when im not using my web browser to listen to music on youtube. my foobar tends to use 24mb of memory when playing, it has a very easy time handling massive media libraries spred over multiple hardrives, some of them only turn on when i use them but it handles that really well when searching through them . i tried winamp out of morbid curiosity and it would use crazy amounts of memory and have issues handling many hard drives worth of music
>>127582929Not if you use Winamp 2. But if Winamp 5 is taking up too much memory you are probably dirt fucking poor living in Eastern Europe or India running your shit on some old Celeron.
>>127575903I run foobar in wine only to do audio conversions. It looks ugly as fuck.
>>127582975kek that's kinda what I like about it, there's an old school really basic theme it ships with, all dark with green text, like some 80s PC. I love it.
Spotify. STFU.
>>127578082>>127582800Just checked, it does:LastLibreListenbrainz
>>127583342Hell yeah, me too; right on, brother!
The only thing more embarrassing than using Spotify would be paying for it. But if you don't pay for it and someone passes you the aux they will know you are poor as shit when the ads come on. A real dilemma there. I pay for Apple Music but I rip ALAC files from it then convert them to FLAC so I can play them in whatever player I want, alongside all my pirated music.
>>127583367Spotify eh? Well, use Firefox and UBlock Origin and you can have premium for free.
>>127575669I'm fine with rhythmbox honestly
>>127583414It sounds like shit in the browser though. I got the keys to decrypt those files and put them into a spectrum analyzer before. I was not impressed.
foobar is perfect
>>127583424>lots of free stuff>complainingSpoilt brat.
>>127583475There's better ways to get free shit with less effort.https://eu.qobuz.squid.wtf/
>>127583479Nice malware!

>>127583488Nice try but i'm not falling for it. :)
>>127583488your url ended in wtf. thats enough for me to strangle you to death with my bare hands if i met you irl.
>>127583494It's not like I want you to have an extensive collection of lossless audio like I have anyway. I want you to listen to Spotify on your iPhone. If everyone did the things I did they would stop being special and I couldn't talk shit about everyone else.>>127583504It's not my URL. If that makes you violently rage you have your priorities all mixed up. I bet I could pretend to be a zoomer and bait you into getting so mad you suicide. Malfunctioning human beings like you are so funny.
MusicBee on PC and Musicolet on Android, or a Revanced patched Spotify if I'm feeling lazy
no jury of my peers would ever sentence me guilty of commiting a crime if i just killed you on sight of a url ending in wtf

>>127583535you dont understand anything do you?
>>127583551Hahahaha rage for me you fucking monkey make ooh ooh eeeeh eeeh ah ha sounds you fucking animal
>>127583479Nice little website.Just downloaded a few albums. All the retards freaking out about it are missing out.
Imagine the inferior breeding stock that produced a "man" who gets angry about a website TLD. Imagine the disgusting fetid cunt he got shit out of. Imagine the loser of a "man" he calls his father passing his genes to that wretched disgusting whore. This subhuman fucking nigger wants to snap someone's neck about a website. Hahaha Imagine what would happen if this genetic malfunction, this failed excuse for a "human" took roids. This nigger would probably decapitate a 7-11 worker for giving him back his change too slowly while he was purchasing chewing tobacco. Imagine the motherfucking smell. Imagine the living conditions. Haha lmao.
>>127583596its like taking the trash out, its just doing something that is necessary, it doesnt fill you with any emotion in particular really
>>127583625That's a great description for your inevitable suicide after your frustrations have nowhere left to go but inward.
I just open files from file manager with picrel
>>127585088Or picrel when mpv can't open some files (like .midi) or I need a playlist
>>127575558it just fucking works
>>127575558Despite the lack of playlisting I use Aural on Mac because you can use high quality AU EQ plugins to optimize headphone listening.
>>127585088I did this for a while with Dolphin. It wasn't as bad as I was expecting, but I still eventually went with Strawberry.
>>127575558You don't need a program to listen to music you can just use your ears.
VLC, it just werks
>>127577644musicbee is better than foobar in literally every wayfoobar is for sunk cost autists who feel too attached to it to switch to musicbee
>>127589426You talk like a woman.
>>127577039>paying a subscription for ads on a service that has fuck all music on it just so Joe Rogan can build another DMT-wing on to his mansionUnreal
>>127580681>black text on white backgroundngmi
>>127589936I mean I don't spend time looking at it. I choose an album, start it, then minimize it. Plus I just never liked Night mode with anything really.
I switched to primarily streaming in 2018 but I still keep my mp3 library in MusicBee as a museum of sorts. I do the actual listening through Plexamp though for mobile support. I'm rarely at a desktop anymore.
i've only ever used winamp and foobar
>>127589426>musicbeeit looks less efficient than foobar, so how can it be better?
qmmp clones winamp and runs natively on Linux, perfect for my needs
>>127580681I like how you can expand/collapse the albums. What is that panel called? Is it from a plugin?
>>127593299nvm I got it. I've been using Georgia-Reborn for a while, and it's there too.
>>127592698you can customise it to be whatever you want
I started building my own music player some years ago, but forgot to finish it.I had plans to add the playlist functionality too.Just remembered and opened it now. This must have been at least 10 years when I built it.Anyway, I think I'll eventually build my own player in a browser window.Did you know you can browse your local files and play them in the browser too? Without even a player.
>>127575558>programWe call them apps now, unc>>127587520True, but depending on the composer, you might be confused
>>127580581Stopped using it when I saw it had no proper video player, instead it had a separate window that would appear in random places
I like AIMP because you can hide it so that it doesn't show up when alt tabbing
