This company offers an app called TuneSync, they have a free and paid version... I've been using it for a couple weeks and really like it so far...
I use TuneWiki to listen to music, does anyone have any music or video apps that they suggest?
I use xmplayer slacker radio and sumtimes imusictao

I want to listen to streaming air traffic control from http://m.liveatc.net/feeds/?icao=sfo but when I play a stream I can either play in vPlayer or Streaming Player, but both apps turn off the audio when I do anything else... kinda defeats the purpose if I can't stream in the background...
Anyone have any suggestions for me?

Have not had much experience with streaming from the web, but with the audio player they use it will not multitask. You need to find an external app that will handle the stream...
I'm gonna look into this more... I'm a Crash Crewman for the Marine Corps and am in constant contact with the Tower, so this would be a nifty app to find for myself as well.

Yeah supposedly LiveATC is going to have an Android app eventually but its be nice to have an app that can stream anything in the background.

Ugh I can't find any solution. Streaming audio stops when the app goes from open to in the background ... :-(

The HomePipe Android Application lets you get all your content - photos, videos, music, and more from your PC from anywhere on a network. You can stream music, videos without much hassle.

I also recommend Plex, very nice player and great quality streams outside your home network.

HTC included a media server option within their Gallery App. Just click on the drop down and select Media server.
Double Twist and Google Music for Me as well
Audiogalaxy > Google Music for me. I have 320g of music on a NAS and I'd hate to find out what Google would charge me to 'cloud' all of that.
500gb of music via Subsonic
It's not true streaming - the audio is copied to your device and you set how much space to use and whether the music is visible to the system music app. Traffic can be encrypted. Win/Linux/Mac. Android App available. Web interface. Can do video too.
Twonky is nice but I don't know if it's worth it yet. Have to test it out.
Built in ability is nice but not sure if it will work over 4g.
SO currently I use my ipod touch for music, and I also use itunes. However, I thought about using my TB as my music player, here are some questions:
1. How big of a pain is it to get music on
2. Rhapsody or iTunes (library is on itunes, never used rhapsody)?
3. Possibly my biggest question is quality. I have run Pandora on my TB and the quality is much lower than that of an iPod (understandable as its a radio frequency). However my point is, if I have to run songs on my TB at VOL 50 instead of VOL 40 in my car to adjust to the quality and get the bass up, then I am not sure the TB is the best music player. With that said, whats your experience with the quality?
I use my TB exclusively for music, thanks to Google Music. Haven't had an issue with quality with my Sennheisers, but YMMV.

Simple, Connect your phone to your PC, and copy the music you want to your SD card.

You don't have to use a certain program to sync, you can if you choose to, there are many out there, I don't sync my music so I can't help there.

I connect it via the 3.5mm jack to the aux in 3.5mm jack in my 09 jeep with a monster audio cable. Things sound great to me, especially using the SRS enhancement with the stock music player. Bass is nice, not crackly like you would get with an FM transmitter, I would honestly say it is at least CD quality. But all my music is ripped at a high VBR or 320kbps.
There are apps that will let you sync your iTunes library to your Android device, do some Googling.
If you are used to using your iPod for music then I don't think you are going to like the interface.
I miss having my iPod Touch but I refuses to carry separate device just for music.

All my music needs are fulfilled with slacker radios caching. It allows me to save 100's of songs on my phone and play them without needing a data connection. Bad part for some would be you can't pick what song to hear unless you have the higher paid account. For 4.99 a month I just cache my favorite stations for all my music needs.

Subsonic can do that also, think it's a one time $10 donation for unlimited use. Can stream pretty much any type of media on your computer.
Check out Audiogalaxy. It's a free app that streams your *entire* music library from your desktop/media server to your phone. If you are in a 4G area, it streams without compressing. I have an ipod classic but I rarely use it anymore. Streaming via AG is more convenient & sounds just as good.

If you are going to listen to your own music on the thunderbolt, i would strongly recommend buying power amp. That player will allow you to drive the actually good audio hardware to its limits, dropped my old mp3 player faster than a sack of rocks after i started using poweramp
Haven't used my iPod in forever... I use the following:
Slacker: When I want to stream and/or listen for new bands...
Subsonic/Google Music: When I want to listen to my personal music collection (which is too big to fit on any size device right now).
PowerAMP: For cahced music.
Now Google Music is not that great right now (Subsonic is better IMHO) because it is picky about some of the music I have and won't upload it. Subsonic turns your computer into the music server so you don't have to upload anything, you just have to asign your computer a static IP and keep it on.
I love PowerAMP for the quality of play so I will usually use Subsonic or GM to cache (or download) some songs and then play them with PowerAMP, since the Subsonic and GM players don't hold a candle to PowerAMP.

After reading the last couple comments, I downloaded the trial, listened to 2 songs, tweaked the EQ and settings, and listened again, and then bought the unlocker, this is an amazing music player.
Don't forget that the thunderbolt is compatible with DHS enhancements
Thanks a lot for the responses guys, I will try your suggestions and test it out!
The srs in the htc music app is amazing, especially with in ear headphones

Just installed full version of power amp, how should I transfer my itunes music to my phone? I dont know that I would like to keep using itunes, waiting for google music beta invitation so I can start using that
I use the ipod only because there is no good way to connect it with my car radio that doesn't leave a bunch of wires all over the place... I've emailed HTC about a bottom connector but they weren't to receptive to it.
Again I know I could do it with the phone, but having that bottom connector on the ipod allows me to have it in my car and hidden without a bunch of wires all over the place.
+1 for subsonic, donated to that project and use it all the time... everywhere!
I use iTunes as well and use the Thunderbolt for my music player.
iSyncr (and/or iSyncr WiFi) syncs itunes music including playlists so it is very easy to set up. Use Bluetooth in my car; not missing anything from when I used an iPhone/iPod. It even syncs playcounts if you have Last.FM scrobbling.

iSyncr is the way to go. It's what I use to get my music on the Bolt.
If you're not concerned about the battery, I wouldn't use your iPod anymore. PowerAmp does just fine as a music player.
I use Google Music and upload to the cloud
I like Google music but the recent 4g outages have left me high and dry when I wanted to listen to my streaming collection. What is a good alternative to Google music that will give some control at lock screen. And/or can streaming be disabled on Google music and all content stored locally?
In google music, you can make albums available offline but that assumes you do it before verizon goes down again ;-)

I love UberMusic, it looks awesome with the Metro UI.
I like to use songbird, but that's probably because I like to use songbird on my desktop. There are better music players out there

I use MIUI's music player. It's nice!
Google Music with Equilizer app works great for me
Before that PowerAMP was great
Also using stock MIUI player... don't need anything else!
Depends on how you plan on your preference of listening to music. Google Music is great because it stores your songs on the cloud, so there's no need to store the mp3 on your phone. Spotify & Pandora are obviously great as far as streaming goes. As far as music players the Stock MIUI is really nice. Though the Sony Walkman music player is my current favorite due to the simplicity and being able to shake the phone to change songs.
I used winamp for some time, it's excellent because it has support for shoutcast radios... But it uses too much RAM it's a con...
Keep forgetting about google music... I been falling in love with the zune software so smooth and silky.
I second liking UberMusic
It has been one of my favorites.
I've also tried bTunes Music Player and Double Twist.
They all have their pros and cons check them out.
I didn't like Double Twist as much. Felt like I was being charged for every feature a-la-cart
I found Power AMP is best music player...

The only downside is, that it does not work together with HTC sense lockscreen.
But the equalizer with its precut works a lot better than the one of every other music player i tested including Google musicplayer.
power apm is the best one out there and i found that its working on ics 4.0.3 rc3.1 build with no problems and no duplicates

TuneWiki FTW. fricken love this music player.
O player da google que vem com o android 4 esta fantástico e muito bom

I love Meridian myself, it has a nice player interface and lots of good features, with exclusion directories and video support.
I can't link yet but its org.iii.romulus.meridian on the Market.
Still haven't ventured outside of Google music, gonna have to give poweramp a try.
