I come to you with nothing, Sup Forums. I have no words.
Years ago I decided to trust Apple with my music because of Smart Playlists based on how many times I played a song.
Over time, my library slowly grew, and soon I considered it too demanding to move it to foobar or rhytmbox because of this information (number of plays, stored in the itunes library file).
I now see my mistake.
I have no music. I lost over 150 gb.
My question is: do you have an iPod, and what software do you use?

I use my android phone as player.
Main library is just on a NAS (with the usual DLNA & network filesystem access). Copies of some stuff is stored offline on the phone.
I let Windows Media player sort and name my shit, and let Windows Media server serve it up on the network.
I also have a 15 year old iPod mini running rockbox.
does it support play counts with an ipod?
same question
file system folders.
> Years ago I decided to trust Apple
Stopped reading right there, I have zero sympathy for you.
Back when I had a 160GB iPod I used foobar2000 with the iPod manager plugin for putting music on. Still had iTunes installed because there was a step in the syncing process which tended to stall, and installing iTunes made it stop happening. (Never used it though.)
That was on Windows at least. On Linux it was Gtkpod.
musicbee, mostly bc of the multiple artist splitter + letting me tag w/ multiple genres though
how to do this in Mac? I cant find shit, can you point me in the correct direction?
i don't listen to recorded music. the only way to hear it's true form is to play it yourself or hear it live.
this is good info, thank you anons
thanks

Found your problem.
what the fuck mate. I jsut play shit on spotify. WHo has time to organise music?
tool
i use spotify
musicbee for local music
spotify or google music for streaming
I still use iTunes. I'm just comfortable with it and haven't liked any of the other alternatives I've tried. I just manually create playlists onto my Android phone. It's not ideal but I'm not so autistic about my music that it bothers me. Don't like to stream as I like to keep my data usage as low as possible.
cmus on laptop, and just switched to foobar2000 on phone.
Foobar2000
D:/Music
MusicBee. I use smart playlists as well. If a song's genre is hard rock for example and has 4 or 5 stars in its rating, it goes on my hard rock playlist automatically. I have musicbee automatically export these smart playlists to a static .pls file.
I use iTunes to sync these playlists to my iPhone. Musicbee has some weird work around for syncing but I could never get it to work. I guess Apple hasn't opened up support for 3rd party syncing, works out of the box for some ipods with musicbee
When I had an android phone it was super comfy to just plug in my phone and have it sync everything for me. iTunes, at least on Windows is fucking unusable
raid5 (as with everything I plan to keep for any amount of time, like family photos)+foobar
First step install GNU/Linux.
Second step install dupeGuru.
Third step install Easytag.
Done.

What manner of autism is this?
