try miui music. that seems to be all the rave. I personally love the 2.2.1 com.android.music.apk... but don't know if its compatable with droid x.. can be found in the eris forums under development/froshedyo/version 7. long press volume to skip tracks but a similar UI just no visuals so it runs smooth

Doubletwist with AirSync.

PowerAmp. Best player out now, sound is terrific, and the EQ allows for audio tweaking to fit anyone's taste. Costs 4.99 in the market, but is definitely worth it if you care how your music sounds.

i reluctantly bought it and its pretty awesome. Just needs to fix the headphone removal service eating battery and it would be perfect

I use Winamp
Its free on the market
It can do wifi sync if you have Winamp installed on your computer

I use mSpot. Its an awesome cloud based music player

+1 More for PowerAMP.

Lithium user here...and I personally love it.
The UI was just so original that I had to have it. I even went through the trouble of asking the dev to put it up on SlideMe market...as my bank won't allow charges in a foreign currency.
*OT*
Goddamn market...I swear...please convert currency FOR ME so my bank allows me to buy foreign applications...Too many times; I've wanted an app...but had to pirate it because it wasn't in the market or SlideME.

Player Pro (Paid) or Lithium Player (Paid). I hate the stock android player - no intuition whatsoever. I hate Apple products but the iPod/Phone music player is very nice.

I didn't hate the stock music player, but I downloaded the "leaked 2.3 music player apk" and I love the look and feel to it. With that app open, it feels like I am on an actual mp3 player and not a phone.

Glad to hear it. Mine worked amazing up until changing a few phone files for theme-ing. Now my music skips when running in the background if I'm doing any type of navigation on my phone (scrolling through apps, looking through facebook) Have you run into anything like that with the leaked app?

I use the winamp player, its pretty good

I've noticed this. Also, tons of forcecloses with the honeycomb music app.

One of the forum members on this site leaked a new motorola media player, its been reviewed on several droid blogs to be great, but apparently Motorola made him take it down.

tried real player yet? its not bad

The eq on poweramp makes the $5.00 worth it.

Good Podcast App?

Who recommends what for a good podcasting app that doesn't break the bank, and free is even better!
I currently use Listen, but as with anything from Google, it's not very intuitive.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Roger

Wow...I thought for sure there would be a couple feedbacks by now.
Hmm...guess I'll stick with Google Listen for now. I'm aware of DogCatcher and some others of that caliber, but I was hoping for some secret I wasn't aware of. Lol

I use listen also I dont tthink there are any better alternatives

Sadly, I think you've found the best there is. Listen is buggy and lacking, but especially if you're a reader user, it's the best I've found. Seems like a big opportunity for someone to fill the gap. If only I had the time.

try .Podkast it allows favorites, download or listen live etc. and does video podcasts. Its a pretty good one.

Stitcher.

Doggcatcher is what I use, its worth every penny. Does everything Listen does, just does it better.

+1 for .podkast. Stitcher only streams. .podkast streams AND downloads shows to your SD so you can listen on a plane or somewhere with no service. I use this app all day err' day!

+1 For PodKast
I drive from Portland (Oregon) to Spokane (Wa) and back daily. I download about 3-5 (mp3) podcast's daily. There's an option that shows you new post's too.

ZPlayer

Ok I found this amazing app (in my opinion lol) and I thought I might as well share it out if anyone's missed it. It's wp7 music player in beta stage but the fluidity and the looks is really good already. Not a single lag. Try it
Another music player made by the same dev has better SQ than powerAMP btw.

does this app have auto resume playback after a call? the music player in cm7 is missing this feature (or i haven't figured out where to enable it) but its driving me crazy that its missing that feature.

Cannot find the app, please provide apk

Its from the Guy who's doing the WP7 port that got closed down on here. Shiny player, nice

I havent checked it but since its a beta app im guessing no. Use poweramp for that

What..? This is a paid app even though it's in beta stage? That's weird. Well, I'm curious to know more about this app. Too bad I don't have an online paying method.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

I am curious, sounds like a good player, could you explain how the sound quality is better than power amp
Sent from my GT-I9000 using the internet via XDA App

He's talking about Better Music Player. There's a trial version you can try out in market.

Yh it's Better Music EQ and it's only better in terms of SQ. What I find better with this music player's tweaks i.e. EQ, bass boost, virtualizer etc is that it doesn't distort the music sound as much as powerAMP. So it's much easier to get clearer sounds with natural deep bass with crisp treble. The virtualizer, if used properly, can widen the soundstage without affecting other sounds

I believe he's talking about zplayer which is a zune player port from the zune or Windows phone 7, I dnt believe its the one u r talking about

well your paying to get into the beta, and u get to take part in the beta and then u get all the apps for free cuz u paid to get into the beta

trying it right now, had few force closes when going back from homescreen to the player. sound quality is on par with my current mixzing player IMO.
lack settings menu. some cover art cannot be read.
overall still quite a nice option player

[Q] Music Player?

Whats the best music player out there for Android? Also is there a music player out there that shows the top 25 played songs kinda like itunes?

I myself have not found a real good high quality music player. some will say Poweramp, but to me its not the greatest. I am going to try doubleTwist and as you can see in the thread I just posted, doubletwist is supposed to be really good so give it a try

Power amp is the absolute best. But if u want an ipod look you could use btunes. But neither have top 25 most played. I think google music might have the top 25 feature though.

I like Winamp. Solid player with wifi sync.
Sent from my A500 using XDA Premium App

+1 to PowerAMP, I don't think it has top 25 played, but if you knew what those songs were you could always make a playlist of your favorite songs. It also has a built-in equalizer that can really improve the sound quality if you have any crappy sounding mp3s. My 2 cents.

Thanks guys Poweramp is great! I just wish it had the top 25 songs option. It's cool though

Poweramp

I've been using Cube Player myself. Works pretty well, and it's free. I haven't tried any others, though...

I purchased them all. Mixzing premium has grown to become my favorite. I've used player pro, lithium, btunes, power amp and cubed. Lots of good choices out there.

I LOVE DoubleTwist because it now supports AirSync (Air Play) which streams to Apple TV which is great for me since I own Apple TV. Plus I just really like the UI and how it works.

i like lossless music
So for now I'm trying andLess.
It's bare bones, but it plays my Apple lossless files. Before I always had to make a separate set of .flac files. Now just one version does me in both places.

I love Google music, but I'm also on the beta.

I'd like to use their Beta with cloud storage but until they allow you to upload an iTunes playlist no thanks. I'm not going to let it upload all 6,000+ songs. Would take forever! At least the Amazon player allows you to choose playlists!

I uploaded 20,000 songs it didn't take that long. It's nice having all that music not take up room on my phone. I love google music!

Right now I'm digging UberMusic. It's from the same guy who made Launcher Pro. I'd check it out if you're into a light and minimalistic music player.

Doubletwist is the best
I recommend doubletwist and if you buy airsync you can transfer through wireless

I'm partial 2 AMZ cloudplayer, until they cap our GPRS

+1 for WinAmp. Been rocking it for PC since it came out, and now rockin it on the Tbolt

Better music/multimedia player

I'm not sure if this goes here or tge themes/app section but since its a queztion I put it,here. Anyway do you guys know of a great music app free or paid I have mixzing but it hogs memory and battery and some features annoy me. I jusr want good quality and a equalizer.. Thanks

i personally use player pro with the add on dsp pack and the dark skin i like the way it looks and feels

Thanks I used Player Pro and the dsp pack but the pack keeps crashing and I have to quit the program and start it again but I like it. Uber Music is quite cool too

Uber music is the player that I use. For videos I use mobo player. No complaints
