What music player are you guys using? I used to use Google Play Music (I think that's what it was called) but it was discontinued a few years back. I switched to AIMP but it's not very user friendly. I don't need anything fancy. Just something that can make playlists and is easy to turn shuffle on/off. I don't care about skins or any of that stuff. Something free.

I moved everything into my Dropbox account and I stream using the Cloudbeats app...it's one of only a few that will stream from Dropbox

Google Play was good for years,
Google Music SUX!!!

Winamp! It really whips the llama's ass!

I've always liked VLC, lean and clean.

I use AIMP and have no problems making playlists, turning on the shuffle and using the equalizer. For myself I find it pretty user friendly.

I don't think I've heard that in 15 years.  :lol:

I'll go back to being a conservative, when conservatives go back to being conservative.

I have a boom Box A.M./F.M and Cassette. :)

The Antenna broke so I stuck a metal Hangar in it.

I use SiriusXM, or Amazon Music.

Thanks for the tip @John. I have my music on DropBox as well. I'll give that a shot. :cheers:

YouTube Music.

When I'm on the golf course I just fire up Pandora.

I'll probably give that a try since it's already on my phone.

That's usually what I use. The commercials aren't excessive.

OK, maybe I won't use it. I already have my music on a memory card in my phone. All I need is a player. Sounds like YouTube Music isn't what I want.

If you want to play music you already have stored on a device, it's probably not. I don't have any of my own so, in that way it's more like pandora or Spotify.

I quit using Pandora. No matter what I did it seemed to play the same things over and over again.

I've been a Pandora subscriber for so long I'm grandfathered into the $3.99/mo subscription... that said with Pandora you really have to like/unlike songs as you build a channel. If you just let it play,  yup, same things over and over with a very occasional new song....

Pandora started as a genome project... when you like "this" the algorithm says "well this is like that,  so try this".... the more you like especially early on the more it opens up for you.
