A simple lightweight player is good because my use case for a music player generally is to listen music, and not to do extensive database queries on the metadata. In that case, a simple minimal interface gets in the way less. I usually had the window in the corner of my screen so I could see what song is playing and skip/rewind tracks.
I have no problems with advanced features, but I simply don't like the big clunky windows that pop up by default.
- ugh 16y agoI don’t do extensive database queries. I browse my music.
- sjs 16y agoI use my music player to play music. I don't sort through my filesystem painstakingly building a list, I just say "play songs in these genres" or "play songs in these genres that I've rated at least 3 stars". Technically these are DB queries but it's not like I'm typing SQL. When I want a small player window I have that too. To each his own, but your arguments against music libraries are pretty bizarre and make no sense to me.
