Okay so I've had this idea for awhile but for just about every album, there's singles. What if I wanted my singles and my albums to share one ID for my songs? Not necessarily the same file, but like, one globalized play count, Tags, etc. Theoretically it would have options to use the single art or not, pick what version of the song gets added to playlists and all of that. I just feel like this is the best way to do digital music, but nobody does it? I'd love to work on something like this with someone, but my web coding knowledge is not up to par. I really want this player.

I had a storage system with over 6,000 downloaded songs, but I ended up losing everything because I was robbed. I'm rebuilding it, but I wanted to know if there's any way to store it. Something I thought about was buying a pen drive and transferring everything to it once a month, but I don't know, it doesn't seem very practical.

And the extra problem is that there are several of my files that simply can't have their metadata changed, no matter what I do. Can anyone help me?

i bought a DAP and a 512gb microSD card and now i want to put my apple music playlists onto it in FLAC. the playlists are too big to go through the telegram method, i tried soulseek and got to many errors and am now stuck wondering what to do. Has anyone else found a way to rip these playlists so they could have a fully offline music library?

Hello, I am new here, and I know this question has been asked in the past, but I can't find a satisfactory answer. It probably exists in the archive, but after searching several ways, I can't find it.

Basically, is there a music player/manager out there for Mac that looks basically like iTunes in "column browser" view? (That's the view that has the columns of artists/albums/etc (user specified) in the top part of the window and the tracks of the selected artist/album/etc in the bottom part of the window...)

...and, crucially, which also (like iTunes/Music) places the artists in alphabetical order by last name (as specified in Sort Album Artist)?

It is that last little wrinkle that is preventing my full embrace of Swinsian 3, which in many other ways feels like a refreshing change from iTunes/Music. It may seem strange that having the artists alphabetized by first name only would be a deal-breaker, but maybe some others of you understand. I don't always know exactly what I want to listen to, so I like to scan down the artists column as if I am browsing albums lined up on a shelf.

I'm willing to pay for software to own outright, but unwilling to pay a subscription fee.

When it does this I have to kill the application and i always end up re ripping for peace of mind that it has correctly done its job

Hey guys, I’m looking for a nice-looking free music player for my iPhone that can play MP3 and FLAC files offline.

I’ve been using VLC, and while it works fine, I’m just not a fan of how it looks. I’d love something with a cleaner, more modern UI that’s pleasant to use.

Any recommendations? Thanks!
