Grapevine is great, but for my underground library it is not. This can be considered as both advantage and disadvantage, but I’m quite sure many of my readers don’t have a home server so that’s why this is a clear downside. While I personally love servers and setting up my own media files, not many do. You can listen through your related songs with just one click, how great is that? Con: Needs a server This feature is familiar from Spotify or Google Play, but I’m amazed you can do the same with your own music collections. Mp3 and flac is all you need, but if you’d happen to have aiff or wma, let’s play it! Library and artist radios Great, huh? Supports almost any music format You can download the app for Windows, Mac and Linux. That means blazing fast performance, no lags or hiccups!

Fast performanceĪpp is small not only by its user interface, but I read it’s coded well. Remember Winamp? Plexamp is just like the original Winamp, kinda. The biggest disadvantage was the lack of any solid desktop player.Īfter my occasional googling of music server and music apps, I stumbled upon Plexamp. The music server and gravenote didn’t convince me first. Well, there’s Plex! It’s the best media server currently available and couple of years ago they opened their music service for the Plex Pass owners. Open source server side software like Subsonic, Madsonic and variants are ugly and need lots of work. Less known Roon is great but very expensive for a system that doesn’t work from outside of the home network. Google Play Music comes close since it hosts all your mp3s, but it lacks in metadata. Spotify is near perfect, but for a big music nerd like me it still lacks some of the more underground side of music and has quite limited support for your own mp3s. I’ve been searching for the perfect music player forever.
