Nice! Speaking of Winamp - are you using any alternative music player for iOS that you would recommend?

I started using https://github.com/kushalpandya/Petrichor https://github.com/kushalpandya/Petrichor a while ago. Though design is more akin to the default Apple Music app than WinAmp.

  Interesting! Will be checking it out.

  I've wanted a music player like the early versions of iTunes for a while, and this looks like it might fit the bill. Those who've only known Music.app and later iTunes versions might be surprised to learn that there was a time when iTunes actually had a clean, intuitive UI: https://www.versionmuseum.com/history-of/itunes-app https://www.versionmuseum.com/history-of/itunes-app

    Beautiful. I remember running iTunes 5 on my Powerbook G4, incredible how things have changed.

Can't go wrong with FB2k: https://www.foobar2000.org/mac https://www.foobar2000.org/mac It now has a last.fm plugin, so let's get scrobbling!

I like Swinsian (assuming you mean MacOS)

  I really liked this too, but balked at the license fee and ended up not paying.

  Swinsian was the only Mac music player I could find that could come close to replicating my old MusicBee setup. The license fee was annoying but I paid it anyway and have no regrets.

Decoupled: <https://apps.apple.com/us/app/decoupled/id1382409837 https://apps.apple.com/us/app/decoupled/id1382409837> 100% offline-only. Open in Finder, drag&drop music, enjoy the untethered experience.

  That's exactly what I like, airplane mode-friendly. Thanks!

  I love Decoupled, but the lack of updates and Apple's tendency to delist unmaintained iOS apps makes me nervous. I swapped over to VLC last year.

  Excellent, I like offline players best.
