• For those who've recently switched from Windows to Mac, what's the one app you miss the most?

  Foobar2000. There is no macOS music player that comes close; QuodLibet almost hits the spot, but that's a very large "almost". Source: 11 months ago

• Girl with blow up costume really whips the llama's ass

  Putting WinAmp nostalgia aside, have you heard of https://foobar2000.org? Source: over 1 year ago

• This man thought opening a TXT file is fine, he thought wrong

  I would 100% agree if it weren't for the existence of the music player foobar2000. Both share similar design goals. But foobar takes it a step further by making the entire UI completely user customizable with a simple built in editor. All without sacrificing speed, compactness, or usability.

• Fans quitting Spotify to save their love of music (2022)

  Have you tried https://www.funkwhale.audio/? It can be used effectively as a "private spotify".

I lowercase and underscore spaces. Also does files if I happen to need Mp3Tag when Picard doesn't find anything. Once this is done I move files on to may NAS. Source: 5 months ago

• The Quest for Semantic Music Tagging Software

  Musicbrainz Picard - A great application that I've used in the past to identify and organize my saved music collection. It's not focused on adding semantic tags though: it's used for adding metadata to .mp3 files. Source: 6 months ago

• Spotify code suggests HiFi tier is coming with lossless audio for $20 / month

  I do the same but run it though Picard[0] before adding to Plex. [0]https://picard.musicbrainz.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Musicserver that works with folders, not albums

  Feed all of your music to something like 'musicbrainz picard' - it will sort out all the tags and provide the artwork too. Source: 10 months ago
