This is a little issue but it's always bugged me. I have a nice pair of headphones with MP3 controls on them but they do nothing on Android. If they're plugged into a phone they'll act as a control for the phone (and, very helpfully, hitting the play/pause button will randomly dial the last number called ) but they don't work as MP3 controls at all.
The second issue might even be a "feature", I don't know, but you have to be very careful how you organise your music or it screws up the album information. On every Android device I've ever owned (and I've used Android since the G1), if I just dump all my music into one folder, the album art is replaced with random stuff from my library and the album name is the name of the folder. The only way to get around this is manually making folders for every artist and taking the time to sort the music, which is just a PITA.
How come this hasn't been sorted yet? It really hinders the use of my Android devices as music players. I actually still have a separate iPod because when I get rid of my iPhone I don't want to have to rely on an Android phone as my sole music player.
I'm just venting here really but it irritates me. Android is an awesome OS in so many ways but they still can't get the basic little things right sometimes
