qirex posted:it was definitely a splurge for me but it's incredible, that said if you're not using a streaming service it's a lot less useful but I feel like it's pretty obvious local files are already a grognard feature and support for them will probably gradually disappear from default os apps will look into these, thanks feeling even older now that even non-subscription music players have turned into multi-room client/server affairs might be the last person on earth still copying albums onto an mp3 player Esposito posted:I haven't used Swinsian on anything newer than a 2013 MBP but I used it for several years and thought it did what it needed to and didn't get in the way.

still trucking along with iTunes just fine. use XLD for ripping and encoding though, the multi core support is great.

I like Overcast. I especially like the Smart Speed option for news and discussion podcasts since it can trim down on long pauses but doesn't make everyone talk at hyper speed (i also use custom playback speeds)

the only good thing about UWP is how easy it is to do Get-AppxPackage | Remove-AppxPackage i'd prefer if windows didn't come preloaded with a ton of useless crap though
