From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

most of my music files don't even have any metadata
How can you live that way?
i just liike it to be simple yep
That's fair. Though "simple" for me is actually having meticulously sorted and tagged media. That way it displays reliably and beautifully in most any player.
Nothing beats playing just what you want, when you want, whether or not there's internet available and at the highest quality you can afford. Quodlibet/Rythmbox, ID3 and puddletag FTW !!.
Nice.
I like a combo of FLAC + mpd/ncmpcpp, and running everything through Picard for tagging.
When I'm on the go (car or foot) I use a Hiby R4 DAP with VLC, and the collection translates flawlessly.
Also, scrobble all the things to libre.fm
woa cool thanks!! yea flac is awesome but i use ogg and opus for audio files, actually i think opus is the one youtube uses for their vids and stuff
Probably because it's long standing and fully featured. It's been going since 2001 after all.
have you tried strawberry ?
Love strawberry. Have have followed the family line from Amarok to Clementine to Strawberry
Hijack, but clementine used to have a "remote" available on fdroid where I could manage clementine on my pc from an android phone connected to the same local wifi. Is there anything analogous for strawberry?
I haven't checked, but the Clementine one might work as strawberry is just a fork of clementine.
Exactly. Use strawberry, that's the best audio player.
