Music on Rezound

[WilburNJ]

I hope someone can answer these music-related questions for me before I switch from the Galaxy Nexus to the Rezound:

1. Does the included headphones allow you to pause, skip, rewind with a controller embedded in the wire?

2. Similarly, can you control volume through the headphone remote (assuming it has one)?

3. Will the stock music player import playlists from iTunes? If not, how can I easily covert my iTunes playlists into those that can be used by the Rezound? (I have the Galaxy Nexus at the moment and used double twist to easily load my iTunes media files and playlists into the phone, but it seems like you need to use the stock music player to get the benefits of Beats audio on the Rezound, so wanted to ask about this here.)

I'm sold on the Rezound and all of its features that I've read about here on this forum and in various reviews, but I don't want to carry a separate iPod while also carrying the phone, so I need this device to play music for me during my miserable train commutes.

Thanks much,

Will

Yes on play/pause ffw, no on the volume, but I've learned where my phone buttons are, and can adjust the volume with it still in my pocket.

I hate Itunes, and divorced it long ago. At that time (2 years ago) it was a huge pain. Now I think Itunes may actually export playlists. The biggest problem coming from an ipod, is that Itunes does not put the album art in the ID3 tag, it associates a picture file with each song, which is pretty lame IMO. I think double twist works better than when I went through this so it maybe worth a shot. Also, I think Google music does all this work, and you can use that with an eq off the market, which can work better if you know set the EQ up for your taste. Google music also lets you put some 20,000+ songs on the cloud, will let you download things to your device, and generally, works very well.

I just want to address the iTunes portion. You can grab Doubletwist and import itunes music/playlists and if you want to sync without wires then you can grab airsync to add that capability as well. And I agree with everything said about Google Music. It's great.

There is a controller attached to the wire. It doesn't have a volume control and it also works great to make calls w/. I use the HTC sync to upload my itunes to my Rezound. And Doubletwist is another great option too. Love Google Music.

Same here I imported my Itunes every thing to G music it took a week and I love it, I also say get the Eq from the market Double twist work great as well but why take up space on your sd card when you can upload to G music.

I have everything on G Music too...but...it doesn't seem to stream at the same quality, and you can't use Music player app. Didn't ever used to use it on my old Evo but now with Beats the sound is hard to beat.
