As of now my fav music apps are Cubed love the UI just wish u could put multiple songs in the queued list at a time instead of one by one...I also like the museek player it has the genius like playlist but its just missing a lockscreen player

Default player has a very non-intuitive UI. Tried mixzing, liked the ipod like interface, but hate that it creates a playlist each time you play a song. Doubletwist was good UI, but didn't pick up all my songs for some reason. Right now I am using cubed which seems to solve some of the problems in the other players. Also Realplayer beta looks promising and intuitive UI wise, but the app for some reason doesn't show up as something I can add to my home screen, and it lacks a widget so far. (have an Evo if that matters)...basically none of them is a perfect solution yet.

Figured out my issue with Realplayer not showing up in the list of apps to add to the home screen....I ran into some limit with the number of apps I have on my Evo, after a certain amount of apps, it no longer shows the newer apps in the list of apps to add...once I removed some apps, Realplayer showed up fine.

Thanks for the tip about turning off the playlist 'feature' in mixzing.

So far like 3 (cubed) and Realplayer. Cubed also supports scrobble with last.fm which is a bonus.

Used bTunes for a while but heard about Cubed and I've got to say, it's awesome. Great UI/widget options and was able to grab a ton of album art. I highly recommend trying it out.

So this must be the Cubed.
Looks like its free, I'll have to check it out.

I installed Cubed. Interesting concept, but I still think I like bTunes better.

It looks like plays in Cubed will sync back to iTunes (using iSyncr) only if you have Last.fm scrobbling turned on.

forgive my noobishness but what is last.fm scrobbling??

I also use cubed for music. It really does look pretty.

I also use Zimly for playlist creation and for music videos. It seems to play them well on my EVO.

Last.FM scrobbling is for the site Last.FM. Its a social site for music

It lets your friends know what songs you listen to the most and a good way to keep track of what you listen to across multiple devices.

Ok, I think I'll jump into the fray here with a request, hoping one of you music hounds can help me.

What I need is a streaming music app. However, what I need is a streaming music app that doesn't only let me select from a list of stations that it knows about - it should allow me to put in the URL for the stream I want to listen to.

Are there any apps out there that do that?

Doubletwist for me. I'm waiting for the widget and lockscreen controls. Hope it won't be too long.

 

[Super Dave]

Thanks for the suggestion. I just did a quick browse of their website, and all I see is mention of syncing and downloading playlists, acting as an "iTunes for Android," downloading and syncing podcasts, etc. All very well and good, but I don't see anything that suggests that I can put a URL for a music stream into it and have it play that stream live.

Can you confirm that it actually does that and they're just not mentioning it on the website (at least the parts that I've looked at so far)?

I can't seem to find a place where you can enter a URL on their website, but people here seem to really like Radio Time. Are you wanting to enter in a URL of a radio stream?

Are you talking about DoubleTwist here? I haven't used DoubleTwist to sync yet. I've been using iSyncr to sync because they sync play both ways. I'm not sure if DoubleTwist offers this yet. Hopefully they do.
