I hate iTunes too for all of the reasons mentioned above, however there's one thing it does at least half-ok'ish:
It doesn't eat a ton of CPU while playing a few simple MP3s...
I've tried using Clementine (an Amarok-fork, my favourite music-player by far, at least on Linux) but it's just a resource-hog - comparatively at least.
So yeah - does anyone have suggestions on what to use for music playback? Something that doesn't suck? Something that doesn't waste precious CPU-cycles without reason, generating heat and wasting battery on the go?
- dsirijus 14y agoI've been using http://www.foobar2000.org/ http://www.foobar2000.org/ for almost 10 years now. Though most of my music now is in the cloud, I always keep a heavily modded version of fb2k on my PC. This is BY FAR the best audio player available. I had some respect for Amarok when I was on KDE 6-7 years ago. Nowhere close to fb2k though. Nowadays on Linux I prefer just plain old mpd.
- epa 14y ago> Heavily modded version That's the problem i found with foobar. I always enjoyed WinAmp and still miss it to this day on mac. Itunes is no comparison.
