  • It looks like Windows Vista. Not a fan.

    Multiple genre tags are a big part of how I search around my collection. This feature built into ID3 over 25 years ago. Absolute lunacy that I can only find three players anywhere that support it (MusicBee, Quod Libet, Foobar and derivatives). Otherwise, MB’s layout just felt more clean, intuitive, and user-friendly.

    Clementine wouldn’t recognize my phone, either, so reading/syncing was also out. Basically none of the reasons I wanted it worked and I hated the way it looked. But apparently all most people ask of music players is “plays music.mp3 when I navigate to the folder and double click on the icon.” In which case any of them do that, so Clementine isn’t anything special.

    Apologies for the tone. I’m pretty bitter about the state of music players on Linux.
