I've always been a doubleTwist user on Android but I was curious about other softwares that could transfer my music and playlists.
doubleTwist is fantastic application to transfer files but sadly the cable sync feature doesn't work on the SIII (or does it? Any suggestions)
AirSync with doubleTwist is fantastic as well, but my home WiFi connection is garbage so it takes too long to sync.
What are your favorite applications to sync music and playlists?
Google Music! Love it. I don't even use my ipod anymore
+1, Google Music all the way. I use easy ums app to transfer files or just stick my SD card in my Mac for faster transfer. I have used AirDroid before to transfer files and it worked very well and was fast even on my terrible wifi

Poweramp is not a sync application.. It's a player, and a damn good one.

MusicBee is BY FAR the best desktop music player I have encountered - both for use on the desktop and also for synching.
Much more intutitive and easy to use than MediaMonkey, etc., very full featured (has replaygain, fade, etc) and unlike a lot of other programs I have tried which tend to hang, crash of sync very slowly, it works easily every time.
Im surprised more people dont use it - it took me a while to discover this program and I think it rocks.

I remember that being a massive battery eater. Otherwise totally agree.
Never had it drain my battery any more than any application that streams data while in use. It does use more power than keeping songs on your phone but never was a battery drain on any of my devices. The new software definitely is smoother though.

I had it install apps on my homescreen. What a pain in the ass. Took me a couple of days to find out what the hell was installing apps, they would just appear out of no where. I was also getting ads in the notification bar. This was on my SG2 so maybe something is different with SG3.
haven't seen anyone mention this one yet but I use TinyShark Downloader... it downloads songs in mp3 format from groove shark and works really well. I don't think there are any ads but I use ad free so it might but I don't see them.there's also a version to stream instead of download. the download version is not on the market anymore (due to copyright issues maybe?)
exigo.x10.mx/ the green shark icon is the downloader and blue is the streaming version

I've just uploaded all of my music to Google Music and play via the browser, or I mix it up with Pandora. For local playback I use VLC.

I hate iTunes but use it because it syncs with TuneSync (which syncs my galaxy nexus and my tablet installed in my car when i get home)
I used foobar for a while but missed recently added playlist, and it was very hard for me to get used too.
I don't think this thread should belong in a Nexus forum. But to answer the question, Foobar2000. Second is Clementine.

Yep! Same here. I have all of my songs on iTunes and all my music on iTunes is automatically updated to Google Music. Best of both worlds.
I use Windows Media Player at home to listen to my local library. Pandora when I want to listen to something new. And I use Google Music when I'm on the go.

Air twist/double twist
Airdroid allows you to wirelessly connect to an android device through a Web browser and manage/upload to it.

The doubletwist solution is great but if you don't want to spend money non it then you can use win amp on the PC along with win amp on android to do the same thing.

Airdroid will do what you are describing.
If you are wanting to listen to your music just load it all to Google music.
Edit: get yourself off the apple teet.

awesome! done and bought! just the job!
Isyncr is my preferred app.
+1 to iSyncr, very easy to set up and get running and it's worked flawlessly for me so far. I hate that I have to go through iTunes at all but that's just how it went for me back in my pre-Android days, but iSyncr really worked very well. Well worth the 3 bucks.

try foldersync. great app. also google music is pretty cool.
I do find Google music pretty cool, but I just listen to music for a huge chunk of my day and that active internet connection really kills my battery, also, if I'm not on wifi, or don't have full bars 4g, it seeks to be slow loading songs. Am I doing something wrong?

nah, your right. You can cache music locally. So in google music app you can select songs or albums and select 'keep on device' where it will keep them local and accessible without a inet connection. The thing is then you need to go in and do that for all the stuff you want to listen to which can be a pain if you mostly listen to things offline.
I do use foldersync too which syncs any folders I have defined whenever I connect to my home wifi automagically. I don't need to 'sync' or plug anything in. It just runs and works. That may be better for you. You can specify all kinds of sources to use (ftp, dropbox, drive, windows networking drives, samba, etc).
Wow thanks! Could I do this another way? My main desktop I use I have all my music on, and it can't connect to WiFi, would I just have to plug my phone into my desktop? I apologize I'm a total noob at this haha.

Hi guys! I'm trying to turn my nexus 7 into a sweet music player/gps for my car. I have the gps figured out, but I'm still working on the music. I have a 32 gb flash drive and an otg cable. It is not rooted and I don't want to root it. I have tried the Nexus Media Importer, but the music player isn't that great. So my question is, does anybody know an app or a way that will play the music on my flash drive effectively? Or a way for google music or another player to recognize my drive so it could play the songs on it? Thanks!!
Id suggest uploading it all to Google music then making the songs you like the most offline.

Yeah, I have NMI, just the music player isn't really that intuitive, and hard to work. I'm trying to find an alternative to it, but if not, I'll end up using NMI. Basically I want to use my otg and USB with a music player already out there.
