If the cloud is where you store your music, then CloudAmpz for Android is a great way to listen to it on-the-go without downloading those files. The app works with Google Drive, Box and Dropbox, but only one account at a time.In many ways,

CloudAmpz is similar to Beat for Android, but it has a few things that make it worthwhile. If lyrics support is important to you, CloudAmpz does a great job of showing your current playing track's lyrics by using the ChartLyrics database. Much like Beat, it will also fetch album artThe other plus is in performance.

CloudAmpz is better at streaming high-bitrate files than Beat or any other such player—the playback is smooth. It also has an equalizer, lets you set up custom playlists, and supports local storage in case you have songs stored there.

The free version of CloudAmpz comes with ads, but if you are going to use it to make the most of your cloud storage, pay a dollar for the Pro version. Playing back FLAC files while loading internet-based ads can strain your phone's network.

Though Windows Media Player is a serviceable app, it may not be the best choice for your PC-based music listening needs. Whether you’re an audiophile or a casual listener, if looking for a Wind0ws-based music player that caters to your needs regardless of what they are, you’ve come to the right place.

MusicBee

MusicBee is an excellent pick for those who have huge collections of tunes that need to be organized. MusicBee can import your existing iTunes and Windows Media Player libraries, and lets you tag each file as you see fit. The program’s Auto DJ feature lets you sync with Last.fm, and will play similar artists/genres based on what you play. You can also set MusicBee up to organize your favorite podcasts, audiobooks, and radio stations as well.

With its 10-band equalizer, cross-fade function, and gap-less playback options, audio quality options are plentiful with MusicBee. MusicBee also packs some visual flair in the form of a five-band Spectrum Visualizer that matches up with the tracks you’re playing.  Plug-ins are available for added customization as well.

foobar2000

Foobar2000 is a player that, despite its ease of use, has an extensive set of features aimed at more experienced listeners. Compatible with most audio formats, Foobar2000 can rip audio CDs, transcode supported audio formats, and sports a customizable interface.

Media Monkey

Media Monkey is similar to MusicBee, and boasts many of the same features. Though it lacks Last.fm synchronization, Media Monkey is compatible with podcasts, audiobooks, and can be set up to download your favorite podcasts for you.

Media Monkey supports a whopping 100,000 file and playlist types, while making it easy to tag and organize your files. Media Monkey offers an auto organizer and auto tagger that does most of the dirty work for you, and you could choose to set the player so that it displays an array of file information, including composer, original year, lyrics, and more.

Winamp

Winamp, a child of the 90s, supports most audio formats, as well as CD playback and CD importing. During installation, Winamp scans your computer for media files and sorts out video and audio, separating them from each other.

AIMP 3

AIMP 3 touts a simple design while offering a deep roster of settings. For starters, AIMP 3 supports multi-format playback, and boasts 32-bit audio processing for top-tier sound quality. AIMP 3 also features an 18-band equalizer with built-in sound effects. You can increase the tempo, add an echo, pump up the bass and more.

AIMP 3 also packs a Voice Remover function, which allows you to lend your vocal talents to your favorite songs without the original singer’s assistance.

Tomahawk (Mac, Windows, Linux)

Tomahawk is available for OS X, as well as Windows, Linux and Ubuntu, but that’s not what makes it stand out. Once installed, Tomahawk scans for and imports the music already on your computer, making it easy to start listening right away. You can also upload any new music through scheduled scans, or by dragging and dropping them into the Tomahawk library.

Tomahawk allows you to sync other music services with it, including Last.fm, Grooveshark, Spotify, and Rdio by installing “revolvers” (plugins, basically) in Tomahawk. When you search for music, Tomahawk sifts through your local music library, as well as the services you sync with it, and when a song plays, the app will tell you what the source of the song is. Artist-specific searches will produce info pages, lists of popular songs from that artist, and suggestions of bands similar to the one you’re listening to at the time. These features help Tomahawk stand apart from the bunch.

YouTube is for watching videos, right? No arguments there. But YouTube is also an unlimited source of restriction-free music anyone in the world can listen to. While it’s easy enough to find and listen to it on YouTube itself, there are other, easier ways. These services will turn YouTube into your own personal streaming service.

Streamus (Chrome)

Streamus is probably the easiest way to play YouTube songs in your browser. Streamus is a Chrome extensions that lets you find songs and tracks from YouTube and start listening to them without ever visiting the YouTube website. Or any website, for that matter — the songs play on the mini-player without disturbing your browsing .

Tubalr

If you’re not using Chrome, or if you’re too lazy to pick and choose your own songs, Tubalr is a great choice. With Tubalr, you can’t control the exact songs you’re listening to. Rather, you can choose a genre, a subreddit, or an artist.

MuzicGenie (Requires Flash)

MuzicGenie is a combination between the control you get on Streamus and Tubalr’s interface. MuzicGenie plays videos straight from YouTube, and therefore requires Flash to work most of the time. If you’re an avoider, like I am, you may need to switch to a different browser like Chrome in order to use the service.

Solayo

Want the best of all worlds? That’s what Solayo tries to be. The service streams songs and videos from YouTube, SoundCloud and DailyMotion, letting you either create your own playlists or listen to curated lists by genre. Naturally, you need to create a account and sign-in in order to save your own playlists.

Voilà un programme très intéressant pour les fans de musique qui disposent d'une bibliothèque de morceaux trop conséquente pour réussir à tout écouter.

Après avoir répertorié tous vos mp3, Music IP Mixer attend seulement que vous lui soumettiez une chanson pour vous concocter une playlist homogène en piochant dans l'intégralité de votre collection. Là, on se dit que le résultat sera sans surprise, que le logiciel va uniquement travailler à partir des tags pour rapprocher les morceaux entre eux...et bien pas seulement !

Si Music IP dialogue avec deux bases de données incontournables (Amazon, CDBaby) pour classer les chansons par genre (non disponible dans la version téléchargeable), il analyse également la structure des morceaux (vitesse et rythme), ce qui conduit à un résultat surprenant. On découvre ou redécouvre de belles analogies. Proposez lui le titre très mélancolique Don't Panic de Coldplay et il ira vous chercher No Surpises de Radiahead... Interrogez le sur Oh What a Night de Frankie Valli et hop c'est toutes les anciennes gloires du disco qui sortent des rangs. Epatant.

On connaissait déjà la fonction shuffle pour brasser large et se remémorer un maximum de titres, MusicIP Mixer va bien plus loin. Grâce à lui vous pourrez construire des playlists thématiques et les sauvegarder en prévision de soirées à venir. Ambiance romantique ou survoltée, sautillante ou saturée. Ce petit soft tombe à pic pour les fêtes de fin d'année. Et si ce programme est capable de sélectionner les fichiers dont la structure est voisine, il peut aussi faire tout l'inverse et générer des playlists en alternant des chansons calmes et bruyantes, créer des playlists qui mélangent habilement les genres. Nous vous invitions à faire un tour dans l'onglet shuffle du menu Fichier/Préférences pour décider de tout ça. Nombre de pistes, nombre de fois où un artiste peut apparaître, tout est paramétrable.

La lecture peut se faire depuis le logiciel grâce à un player intégré ou par le biais des deux lecteurs audio majeurs : Winamp et WMP.

There are a lot of great music players for Windows, and it's next to impossible to make a broad "best" statement that applies to everyone. But that doesn't stop the powerful, lightweight, and customizable MusicBee from winning our hearts for the best music player on Windows.

 

Our former favorite, Winamp, has shut down—but that isn't why we've changed our minds on this one. "Dead" apps are still worth using if they're the best—we've just decided, after lots of testing and deliberation, that Winamp is no longer the best music player in our minds.

 

MusicBee hits the perfect sweet spot between easy to use, customizable, powerful, and lightweight. iTunes converts will have no problem getting to know the interface, but will also be able to easily add and moving panes for things like lyrics, Now Playing, artist information, and a lot more—without the pain of something like foobar2000. You can sync with a number of devices (though iOS syncing is very limited), auto-tag your files, customize a ton of keyboard shortcuts, and perform a ton of other advanced features—or if you prefer, you can just play your music through a simple, good-looking player. And best of all, it's completely free.

Tired of Windows Media Player? Here's a bunch of the best free music player alternatives for playing, editing and organising your music collection. So we thought it would be a great idea to round up the best of the rest - the greatest alternatives for music playing and editing on your PC.

 

Here's the list.

 

1. Get sorted with iTunes

It might be an Apple product, but we'd be remiss to not talk about iTunes (http://goo.gl/jdITBy). It does it all: it's a music player, a media browser and organiser, and a tool to help set up your iPod, iPhone and iPad.

 

2. Move it with Musiczen

If your music folder has got into a real mess, with MP3s scattered everywhere, then getting them properly organised can seem like a real challenge - until you run MusicZen (http://goo.gl/Ot1Uph).

 

3. Find songs on YouTube

There are plenty of YouTube search tools around, but MP3jam (http://goo.gl/ygzad7) is a little different from most; instead of helping you access videos more easily, this program is all about music. Just enter a search term - an artist, song name or album title - and it'll quickly return any results, some of which even have album art.

 

4. The classic player

With 16 years of development under its belt, it's no surprise that Winamp (http://goo.gl/iRWGxf) - which can only be described as a classic in software terms - is one of the most capable music players around. The program supports more than 60 audio and video formats. 

 

5. Import and organise

iTunes is a great choice if you want to work with iOS devices, but if you have an Android phone or tablet - or you're just looking for a better way to organise your ever-expanding music collection - then it could be time to give MediaMonkey (http://goo.gl/oLBGfo) a try instead.

 

6. Rename your tracks

Advanced Renamer (http://goo.gl/LQjOC2) is a powerful tool for renaming, copying or moving files.

It's one of the most useful tools if you're serious about keeping your music collection in check.

 

7. Keep it simple

If other MP3 organisers and players seem too bulky and complicated, you might prefer Foobar2000 (http://goo.gl/b4FiD4). Just like other music management tools, this program helps you build and organise your music library, create playlists and sort out your tags. The interface is very configurable, and its excellent music player supports lots of formats, gapless playback, gain to level out volume across tracks and more.

 

8. Quick conversion

Just as its name suggests, Freemake Audio Converter (http://goo.gl/3qIVdz) is an excellent tool for converting audio files into a more useful format. If you have a portable music player or smartphone that can't play some of your tunes, Freemake could well be the answer to your musical prayers.

 

9. Record and edit

Audacity (http://goo.gl/L3uLxG) is a capable and feature-packed audio editor, but is still relatively straightforward to use. Import an MP3 file and you'll see the usual waveform-type display. It's easy to zoom in and select the area you need, and then you can cut or delete it, or perhaps copy or paste it elsewhere.

 

10. Play almost anything

If you're looking for a player that's simple and easy to use, but also has some power when you need it, then why not grab a copy of VLC Media Player (http://goo.gl/rTP4yN).
