Best Free Music Player?

At the moment, am using Winamp. I've used Songbird, but I find the interface a bit clunky, in my opinion. I've tried doubleTwist, but had a problem with a song's music tag... now fixed, but the app seems similar to Winamp. I've tried Realplayer, but it kept on dragging in the 'Facebook pop' sound, and it was annoying me, lol.

Can anyone recommend any good music player apps, and give their opinion on the ones I've used? Would be a great help.

Thanks.
 
I am liking PowerAMP, but it isn't free. You can download the trial and see if you like it. It is really cheap if you want to buy it (about $5). I don't know any free ones that do what I like (divide songs into folders instead of by artist or album).
 
+1 for poweramp, best $5 you'll ever spend on an app. Some really decent apps like this, you just have to bite the bullet and pay for i'm afraid. Mort player or 3 cubed are very good for free apps.

Haha, that I am :p

I've been sticking with Winamp recently, it seems to do the job perfectly. I can't understand why it get's so many negative reviews on the market :/

Mainly just because there are so many better music players out there, that winamp gets pushed to the bottom.
 
A number of people like Zimly in another thread. I tried it and like it. I want folder view, able to repeat 1 song, and lyrics would be nice.
 
Does the same company who make the VLC media player for computers make the same one I see in the Market list? Have anyone tried it out?

Thnx.

Just pay for a decent one and support the developers ;) Apps are not that expensive...:)
 
cloud skipper has the best lock screen, awesome widget, and better than every one of the free apps mentioned there... trust me from experience
 
My MP3s are extensive and I'm a musician. I just bought a Samsung Admire & joined MetroPCS. I want to import 20GB of my MP3s to a 32GB card SD card and use them as a library when I need to remember certain lyrics, this is what I did with my Blackberry. The built in player with the Blackberry was pretty slow but did a decent job. I'm not so interested in a pretty ap, just good functioning of the player & if a player that also plays FLAC is also available, that would be great.

If there's one that allows the slowing of a tune & keeps the pitch, that would be a big help. I use a program; amazingslowdowner with my computer to do this but it would be good to have that with a player as well.

Any suggestions to a great player and maybe one that does those extras?

Thanks!
 
You can upload 20,000 songs (without regard for size) to the google music player and stream all of the music. You can make your favorites available offline and not worry about having a network available. I've been using it quite a bit and it's pretty solid.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. I'd rather keep them on the phone, it would take so long to upload 20 GB of MP3 to the cloud. I'm just wanting to have them on the SD.

See you're in Boston, I'm heading to Framingham right now for the Bluegrass festival at the Sheraton.

Thanks!
