What's the most aesthetic and practical music player and why is it barebones Foobar with the vintage theme?

aesthetic =/= edgyhackerbruhhhhh green/black

iTunes. You literally can not argue this

windows media player

Winamp

Yeah. I've been thinking of getting foobar but I really like how iTunes looks.

in that case get musicbee

Ncmpcpp + mpd

vintage theme is pretty ugly imo
this is what I'm using right now, it's not ideal but it works well and I'm too lazy to learn how to customize it better

Jriver

Musicbee with a nice skin is pretty nice.

step aside

This is best foobar boyos

If you're going to make it look like that, at least use Windows Classic theme, jesus.

OP, too much interwebs for you

Musicbee and metro

No, windows classic gives me eye cancer.

Looks nice, but it's very bad for browsing.

Should I get Musicbee?

How are you sorting by Artist and then albums by year of release?

$swapprefix(%%)|'['%date%']' %album%|[[%discnumber%.]%tracknumber%. ][%track artist% - ]%title% - '['%length%']'
this is what I'm using

Even if it's bare bones, that's a pretty sexy layout.

OP's just doing it wrong.

I don't like the in-player browser.

musicbee

Any variation of foobar's grey skins with a custom layout is the ultimate in form and function

view by folder structure, then 9/10
group by album, then 9/10

Group by album is valid, but I have a preference for grouping by file location since I enjoy creating playlists and have a very orderly file library.
