| Yeah, so I'm just interested in knowing what do you use for music listening. I usually use my computer at home and my phone when I'm not. I use plex to stream music to my phone so I don't have to take memory up. The software I use at home would be vlc, but I'm actually looking for specific music playing software for my desktop. I'm considering Music Bee, do you guys have any other suggestions? The music file formats I have are mostly flac, ALAC, and some APE. |

| On my computer. I use Winamp. |
| I use Foobar2000 and I mainly listen to FLAC. It's pretty solid when it comes to customization and is very aesthetically pleasing if you find the right skin. |

| Ha. Ha. HA. HA. HA. HA. HA. HA. I'm laughing because you got hurt. |
| I mostly use my computer for everyday listening, and I use a program called "MOC." I also listen to music on vinyl every once in a while. |

| VLC. I mostly listen to the video versions that I ripped off Youtube (yeah, I do that. Deal with it). I do plan on replacing them with legitimate audio versions.... when I get the money to do so, of course. |

Bloodshade said: It can play ALAC but not APE. However, there's a component you can download and use on Foobar to make it play APE. BlueScarf said: I use Foobar2000 and I mainly listen to FLAC.

| Either computer or my phone, both plays music just about fine. |

| I use my iPad all the time, I listen to music on it too with my headphones at times or without. |

| I'm using itunes, and scrobbling the track to my last.fm account |
 **☾** |
| I used to use iTunes but got fucked over by it and lost all my songs on its cloud, just for changing my e-mail. For playing music I just use basic ass windows media player. |
 |
| poweramp on my phone |
| I use my phone. mp3 and the built in android player |
| iTunes on my laptop. Phone: Noon Pacific, Inifitracks (8tracks player), Deezer, Play Music, Soundcloud and YouTube. I use to Play Music to play the iTunes tracks I've backup up to the cloud. |

| Usually my computer, I have all my CDs saved on there. If it's music I don't own then it depends, youtube works fine I guess. Spotify is alright, though I ahven't used it in a while. |
 |
| phone and pc |
 But you'll still take damage! |
| Winamp and soundcloude |

Well it's automatic if you follow the instructions, anyway So after I setup everything following those instructions then I install a theme? 1) Install Foobar2000 from scratch 1.5) If you need to set up your Media Library do it now 2) Download a theme 3) read readme.txt 4) follow instructions (which is usually to extract components/skin folders to foobar2000 program folder, and configuration to %appdata%foobar2000) 5) ????? 6) have fun learning the layout I've been using JAM after hearing about it in this thread and I'm not sure if I recommend it. It's really nice looking, I like the way it is, but it's hard to set things up properly without diving into code. Also uninstalling it isn't a simple task either. Any other themes I should try? |

Umm I think I have it set up right? Here is a screenshot of the theme I'm using. I feel it isn't too flashy but more practical which I like. Oh, and I just learned about this a few days ago, so I'm still getting used to a lot. Let me know if any of you have other recommendations with foobar.  I still haven't added in all my music.

I didn't even know about that feature, but then again I mainly use it for videos and not music. So, how do you use that feature? |

| For optimum listening experience, Walkman with my earphone. For casual listening on my computer, Foobar with WASAPI. Still haven't got around in learning the scripts behind the GUI as you can see. |

worldeditor11 said: Bloodshade said: Whats wasapi? http://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_out_wasapi The main reason why I like this plugin is because it mutes all other sounds in my computer. Oh wait, I remembered now. I tried this out in mpc. I didn't hear a difference. How are you hearing sounds from your computer? What theme are you using btw? |

worldeditor11 said: Bloodshade said: Oh wait, I remembered now. I tried this out in mpc. I didn't hear a difference. How are you hearing sounds from your computer? Higher clarity in mid-range since my speakers tend to be rubbish at those sounds under that range. It really depends on your speakers and how good your ears are in distinguishing the difference. Sounds better to me so that's why I keep it. Hmm. I'd say I have pretty good hearing, can't say the same for my eyesight though. worldeditor11 said: Bloodshade said: What theme are you using btw? I don't use any themes though. So how does yours look then? Deathnosis said: Foobar 2000 I have been using it for at least 5 years its still awesome even though there are some changes I didn't like but still its the best music player for windows. What does your foobar look like? |
