Default Best music player for Android - 07-29-2011, 13:08 | posts: 4,286 | Location: Buenos Aires, Argentina

Hello guys,
For those who have an Android phone or tablet, I was wondering which music players you use. I have a Motorola Atrix and I'm currently using the included app, Connected Music Player. I'd prefer to use Winamp, but it has an annoying bug that keeps skipping parts of songs or switching to entirely different albums in the middle of a song.

Which music players do you like?

Interesting. I went to the site and on the Discover tab there is a map where I found a lot of users spread all around me using the app and I could see what song they were listening

Digitally Imported Radio is a must!!!. I use it too, though the bandwidth speeds around here aren't good so unless I'm on wifi at home I generally don't use it outside. Blame the GSM operators

I've downloaded PowerAMP, Ubermusic and TuneWiki. The Miui player installation process is a bit complex, so I'll try later at home. At first sight, PowerAMP looks stronger than the rest, and has the best looking widgets. TuneWiki on the other hand has a very simplistic widget that personally for me is useless. Ubermusic looks very good too, though the beta expires tomorrow so I expect it to appear on the Market. I have a feeling it's gonna be a very, very popular app. It has all the conditions.

hmm, i dont like the new media player they put on the atrix in gingerbread. for some reason, mine doesnt do 'repeat' properly, and i dont like the new shuffle method.

ended up swapping to winamp because the repeat function works, but i dont think winamp has shuffle memory?

I've been using Ubermusic with the Zune HD skin. Beautiful, fast, minimalist.

And pandora as well.

Same here. With the DSP addon pack you get a decent equalizer...

So far I'm using PowerAMP, yet a couple of times it paused itself in between songs and had to manually hit play to continue. I found that PlayerPro distorts the music at high volumes, whereas PowerAMP doesn't.

Does PowerAMP come with an equalizer?
