Well that last part sure sounds like FL or man of the fly over states.

I think we are living in the Star Trek universe, but we're just getting to the Bell Riots shown in DS9. No word on if we get much past it.

I mean, the really good sites tend to have no ads at all.

Yeah, as I said, it is a wacky gimmick, and it does work. My teen kid got a big kick out of it and at the insane price some of the new artists have been charging to get their music in cassette form, it pays for itself in less than three albums if I already had them digitally.

I will say again that it is a $60-ish portable music player, don't expect $1000 Sony gear build quality or interface. I specifically didn't want some sort of Franken-Android DAP, which most newer dedicated music players are, so it worked out.

It's not particularly high end, but I fairly recently bought a Mixxtape MP3 player for $60 new and it works well and can play as a cassette. The gimmick is wacky (but does work), but I mostly got it because I had to switch to a phone without a headphone jack and I wanted something small and inexpensive.

Just throwing it in there that none of my Fiio DACs or amps help up over time, especially with the more portable models. Maybe the build quality is better on their higher end models, but I'm definitely not buying any more of their stuff.

Seriously. The parking near my Costco is so bad I haven't gone in two months. If it wasn't worth the membership price for the tire service alone I'd probably cancel.

Awesome, glad you like it so far. Also take a look at the plugins from the main menu. it comes with a bunch and most are disabled by default. It is also, if you are so technically inclined, relatively easy to write new plugins in Python.

Not the person you responded to, but on Linux, i think quod libet is the best for me. On Windows, (still) foobar2000.

Thanks for the tip, I did the code block as a quick edit because I knew it would at least work.

I have the FOSS version installed and I ended up buying a phone holder as well. Music playing apps can with with AA, but it looks like navigation doesn't unless there is some trick I haven't figured out.

Were you running the version on Google Play or the one from f-droid? I have a suspicion that the Google Play version has some extra sliminess that allows it to work with Android Auto.
