I am not saying anything new in stating that today we consume music through the internet. Services such as Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music or YouTube Music allow you to have a endless music collection and available with good quality on all your connected devices.
But maybe you don’t want to depend from Internet. Or that you want to be the owner of your music even if you unsubscribe from an online service. Or simply, that that music you have is not in the catalogs of Spotify and company. If so, or if you have one music collection in digital format, maybe you prefer to use an application to manage your music from your own computer.
The list of music players with music organizer functions is long, and luckily there is a lot of quality in all of them. A clear example is Strawberry Music Player, a music player available for Windows, macOS Y Linux. It’s free, open source, and intended for music collectors and audiophiles who prefer to have their songs on the disk of their computer.
Your music safely
Streaming music may be very practical, but there is nothing like having your music on your computer, in digital format. Strawberry Music Player is compatible with most formats, so beyond the usual MP3, you can save your songs in the highest quality thanks to formats such as FLAC, OGG The TrueAudio. In addition, it has the essential sound equalizer.
To manage your music and find it instantly, this music player makes it easy to create playlists, tag editing to find songs from the search engine and support for add content and information to your songs.
First, the album covers. To illustrate your music, the app downloads covers of services such as Last.fm, Musicbrainz, Discogs, Musixmatch, Deezer, Tidal, Qobuz Y Spotify. This way you will recognize the songs at a glance. And if you want to read the lyrics of the songs or you dare to sing them, you will have downloadable lyrics from services such as AudD, Genius, Musixmatch, ChartLyrics, lyrics.ovh Y lololyrics.com.
And if you want to carry your music with you, Strawberry Music Player allows you to transfer songs to your iPod, iPhone and to any USB device or player.
Like any open source project, you will find its code and more information about the application in its GitHub repository. You can also answer doubts and questions in its official forum, in English.
In short, with Strawberry Music Player you can enjoy and manage your music without depending on streaming services. Your musical catalog will be yours, the songs will not disappear without warning and you will have the opportunity to catalog them and take them with you wherever you go.
