There are a few podcasts and rainwave.cc I'd like to listen to, but I can't seem to add arbitrary streams. Everything has to either come from Spotify (which I can't access in Canada), Google Music (which doesn't host anything I'm interested in), or locally. And downloading the stream mp3/mpu doesn't work.

hey guys, just wondering if there are any good media streaming apps out there, an app kinda like orb for the iphone where i can stream movies and songs from my pc to my phone. obviously there will be some apps out there that will do it but i just wanna see your recomendations, preferably freeware but if its paid i dont mind. i have a hd2 aswell so im not sure about compatability issues, resolution, touchscreen etc so hopefully someone with a hd2 has an app like the one i have described and can point me in the right direction
seriously no one knows of anything like im asking?
Have you tried Kinoma?
I use Kinoma to stream Audible content and Youtube daily. It has an Orb client built in as well. I haven't had great success with the Orb though. I think my library is so large that it takes a while for each screen of the library to appear. Once a file is selected the streaming works fine.
Well, for Windows Mobile I have written a widget with a streams database. The only negative point of the widget is that you can't stream from your computer, however you will have access to a database with over 11.000 television, webcam and radio streams.

A paid version (and another demo version) can be found in the MarketPlace, the full version has quite some options.
But since you want to stream from your pc, you could try myStreams from the MarketPlace. You can add stream urls to the application, so if you setup your computer to stream the music (for example as radio or another setup) you can add the url to myStreams and play it from your mobile phone with your favorite player (and myStreams has also quite a huge database). However, only a paid version is available.
Kind regards,

I use MyNet to stream audio files from my QNAP NAS.
I can see all tracks without a problem. I can play my tracks too, but only just one.
MyNET plays only the track I select but does not automatically continue to the next one and so forth.
Any ideas why it will not play a complete album/folder/playlist?
I also have the same problem. If this program can't play multiple songs, playlists etc to my TV then is there am alternative.
I've just bought the Infinity and it has exactly the same problem. I was initially stunned that I could use it to stream music from my QNAP onto my TV, however only allowing one track at a time is pointless. It works fine if you play to the tablet, but fails multiplay when sending to another device.
This would be my most used app if this worked. Any ideas?
Anyone know a good way to manage music with a g2x??
I have well over 2k songs on my itunes. I have them all on my g2x, but it seems to have a poor music managing system.
Songs/Artists/Playlists are duplicated many times, playlists duplicate the songs within them sometimes, etc.
I'm wondering if theres a good software to manage the music on my phone?
Something comparable to itunes preferrably
I just want to be able to make playlists on my computer without them duplicating on my phone.
I've tried doubletwist, itunesagent (which doesn't copy playlists), and even winamp.
i'm just using Google Play
I'm just using Google Play Music as well and transfer my files via mass storage. Now I use the cloud for Google Play Music and just keep a few albums on my SD card. I have no problems with duplicates or any other issues.
You have to get a tag editor and
Make sure there filled out right... iTunes fixes them but the music players don't.

Kplaylist + MediaMonkey + Google Play
All my music is on an a private web server that can stream all my music. I stopped using iTunes a long time ago, but all my music is on this web server.
http://www.kplaylist.net/
If you can setup an Apache Service with PHP, you will love this app. Its the only thing I use and get my music anywhere.

MediaMonkey
http://www.mediamonkey.com/
I only use this to update the ID Tags of all my songs and add the album picture from the web. Its a bit tricky, but what I do is, when I decide I want to add and album to Google Play I tag and add the picture album then upload them.
I have like 40 gigs of music, and slowly have converted to Google play. I fix the tags and albums as I go. Its worked so far
Sometimes the picture or the album name comes out wrong, have to re-upload or manually correct it once its inside Google. It happens sometimes, especially if mediamonkey can't find the rare song online.

Google Play
If done right, all the songs will be properly tagged and the album picture inside. Its running better now then when it was called (Google Music). Used to crash alot. The only decision you have is "Make available Offline"
In the end, when its nicely organized, I use Google Play way way more.

I've been using Doubletwist and it copies my playlist from itunes just fine
I use Banshee Media Player. I have it set up to sync one specific playlist. It works in one-click and it even converts my FLAC files on the fly to V9 mp3! Even better, even though I have it set to sync one playlist, it keeps track of which tracks belong to other playlists too. I use it on Ubuntu but I think the sync options work on Windows too.
Edit: It also keeps my media tagged, downloads album art and sorts the files into an [Artist]>[Album] folder structure.
I have files on my local PC (iTunes) which then are synced to my SIII via Spotify. The only place I have these songs stored on the handset are in the Spotify cache folder, and they have long cryptic file names. DoubleTwist, Amazon MP3 and Google Play players find and play the songs (assuming via Tag info), but PowerAmp will not. I know PowerAmp CAN play them, because when I open the file via Astro and select PowerAmp as the app to use it plays no problem.
Is this simply a deficiency in PowerAmp? I guess I know the answer is yes, but would like someone with an idea whats going on for a confirmation.
I can always use AirPlay in DoubleTwist. But I use Spotify mostly, and when I am just listening to local music files I like PowerAmp better as a player (plus I paid for the premium version a while ago).
Eh figured it out. Had to force PowerAmp to Auto detect new Music folders. Its all good now. (didn't have to do that in the other apps, but oh well.)
I've had a look on google, and can't see anything that will let me pay my itunes podcasts streamed onto my phone. I have a bunch of podcasts that go to itunes on my pc, but my ipod is dying, It would be handy to be able to stream across the content, like I can with other files , anyone know of anything that lets me play itunes podcasts remotely?
The google search I did, shows a lot of software that doesn't seem to exist anymore.
Try doubleTwist. Its import all your iTunes library and organize it in your phone in a great way.
