I Like the CM7 music player over stock, as it sounds better with DSP.
However it is limited with features.
I noticed one problem, it plays all my music files. including the samsung tones and music files.
I can't figure a way to make it ignore it, i don't fancy deleting them at all
anyone have any ideas?
I'm using Poweramp and it's the best one.

I'm torn at the moment. At first I really liked Poweramp, mostly because the ability the boost the preamp helped with the low volume problems I was having when listening to it in my car. However, after purchasing Volume+ I found that I no longer need that boost.
Zimly by far has my favorite UI, but I've been getting a lot of crashes on it. I'm also considering bTunes, as the part I miss the most about my iPhone is the media player. I'd be curious to hear if anyone considers that a favorite
I also love Poweramp really much.
Bought it.
It plays my music collection at home, has a great equalizer, and now even supports Beats audio - whaddya want more?
Lol, it supports now beats?!?!?! I used to have it, but then I removed just because of the beats. Stock is good, though.
I use winamp because I'm old school I can't say it's especially different to any of the other players I've used but I stick with it anyway.
For audiobooks I use Mort Player Audiobook, now that is a very impressive app! Pity it looks so ugly but I'm sure it will improve.
I've been using PlayerPro for a while now and really like it.
I have been using Winamp since its release. So far it is a good and simple player. Besides I'm using the desktop Winamp player, which enables me to sync my music via the app wireless.
PlayerPro, because I can browse my music by folders.
I've been using Poweramp for a while and I love it! Its flawless!
Google Music. And I also using unlimited data plan
I'm using stock music app, it's good enough for me

I can't get it to download album artwork, even though the stock music app has done this and it shows in the stock app... Any ideas on what I might be doing wrong with Power amp?
Stock Player and Google Musik is good for me
Stock HTC Music player, because it is the only player that support special audio effect
I don't listen to music so much on the phone. (All the time on the PC!)
However, there are a few listed media apps here in case it helps anyone.

I am using it too, for me it is the best player ever D
Im using the HTC Player too. But thers one thing, I'm not happy about. Where is the "Coverflow". It was included in older Version. Is this function deleted or am I stupid?
For me, the best one is 3 (Cube):

______________________________
stock sense 3.0 music player for me. every music player ive used had a problem for me; always automatically playing,skipping, and pausing, when a headphone is jacked in. i uninstalled all other music apps. i only have stock player now. stock palyer aint so bad, the quality of the sound is almost the same as from other music apps.
Funny thing (not funny) happened to me. I have the "free music"-(it's orange icon in color) app-download mp3- format songs.....ex: (old Ozzy songs i forgot about).
I tell you this I have never ever had a problem with the songs DownLoading and having difficulty playing those songs. I will say that I found the .apk for the miui stock player (really love that player). I used this free music app on my MotoDX and now on my GneX...WITH that miui player. I have never ever had a problem playing that music DL from that app, on either devices.
Well heres the not so funny thing----the miui app "says" that there is no tracks found-and Amazon mp3 app-when switched to device music says no music found. Now when I go into the free music app, they are there in the "library".
I have found those music tracks via Solid Explorer-through Free Music Download. When I click on a track it will ask me what source i want to use to play it ( miui, google music, spotify, amazon mp3) I tried all of them, the tracks will play w/ miui and google play music, not on the others.
But, when i go into the miui app there is no music (it thinks) on my sd card....same with amazon mp3.....
this happened about 7pm last night (no phone reboots or anything) was on XenonHD-v8
meanwhile I used my miui app to play my music while going to work yesterday and throughout the day....
I am on newest JellyBelly FYI-and same dilemma.....
I hope I explained thoroughly-
What gives-is there something i need to do to my memory card to "fix" something??
(mind you) i building my personal "jukebox" lol-need my music
I believe you have the ROM manager issue:

Seriously, it sounds awesome with Perseus audio tweaks and a little bit of tweaking within the player itself. I'm not a big fan of the UI, but it honestly just works.
The only reason I'm switching over is because PlayerPro's EQ and DSP pack were giving me issues. The "bass" knob was going...backwards.
PowerAmp is hideous IMO, but sounds good. Neutron isn't really user friendly, but it sounds epic.
Walkman is nice, but Ac!d audio along with it gave me FC's in Sound Enhancement. (Anyone know how to fix this?)
Anyway,
Perseus headphone amplification up to 63, a u-shaped EQ with +2 and -2 being the limits, negative gain on 1, stereo expansion on 6.
Mild bass/clarity adjustments in the music player, +1 on 3D, +1 on room size.
What can I say, I'm happy. My ATH-M50's suddenly have a new life.
I may flash Ac!d universal again and see how it sounds. I do feel like I can get a bit more sub-bass out of these cans.
Thoughts?
I love the stock music player. The only reason why I'm using poweramp (I like its asthetics fyi but let's ignore that for this discussion) is because of the ability to choose the folders that I want. With the stock music player, it pulls music from my dropbox and also voice recordings. With poweramp, I can prevent that which is better for me. I would use the stock music player otherwise. It also helps when I won a license key from poweramp a while back.

PowerAmp ftw. Been using it for a while. Well worth the price unless you won a copy like above lol.

Since you guys seem to love it, and more to the point, use the stock player, I have a simple question.
When you open the player, say from the widget, how do you get back to a menu where you can open/switch-to a new playlist.
So far I only found that possibility when I open the app using the standard icon.
That annoyance has driven me to use apollo pro (a beefed up version of the player on CM9+ firmwares).
I have one major problem with the stock player (though it's really the os default behavior). I have a lot of music on my 64gb sd card (50gb?) and when I open the stock player it freezes while it rescans it all (about a min) - same on closing the player - very annoying. It does it every time so I use Player Pro which opens instantly for music and just use the stock player for podcasts. The other plus for me is Player Pro shows the album art on the lockscreen. I have no issues with the audio quality of either, though I also like and use the controls in Perseus stweaks.

I have 38gb of 320kbps MP3's, no freezing issues here in any player at all!
Yeah combo of stock music and google play has replaced poweramp. Like the way google play creates playlist and stock player music squares.
Poweramp is in need of a major update. Been using it for years and its getting dated.

If PowerAmp fixed its playlist issues, I'd probably use it again lol.

This. The stock music player will happily play every media file on the damn phone, not just my music.
I haven't used a SINGLE stock music player in Android ever due to this issue.
I'm a playlist user. I use iSyncr for mac to get all my music on there, it all shows up fine.
I can agree about folders though. I have used them from time to time, PowerAmp did that job pretty well.
Cant u choose wich folder to play on stock player too? I like the stock player as well.

I still haven't found a third party music app better than PlayerPro. Stock music player is actually quite good (probably the best stock player I've used) but I can't customize it in the same way I can with PlayerPro. And when you combine PlayerPro with the "Equalizer" app (paid version), it's a wrap!
No one likes winamp? I've been using it on pc since I was a kid and the app seems good. Shoutcast radio is also a plus.

You guys know you can add a no media file for random music files like ringtones and game files.

Ahh! That's why it was choking and scanning forever - I have no playlists and the music player interface always opened where I left it - on the Songs page/tab. If I leave the interface showing the Playlist tab, it opens without a lag! Now to add a playlist...
Ugh. Using the app to add the playlist is problematic, no impossible. I can choose individual songs to add to the playlist, but as soon as I choose "Select All" it freezes (and never completes the task). Then I tried to make the playlist with various apps but I couldn't get any to make a playlist of all songs given my directory structure (All Music > Genre > Artist > CD). Hmm... What should I call it - suboptimal? ...I finally did make a playlist with my PC version of Winamp (mounting the phone with SGS3 Easy UMS), but I'll probably keep using the Player Pro.
Thank you for that comment though as it explained my problem and gave a workaround (make a playlist with an external app), but I think I have to stick with the opinion that the stock player is poorly made... Though perhaps it would be more correct to say that the Android media scanning default behavior is just crazy bad and needs to be changed - then all the stock music apps would probably work fine. The Gallery app by the way suffers from similar problems for the same reason...
How do you get it to pull from dropbox?

I use Winamp Pro. Has an equalizer and plays FLAC. I also bought the Album Washer and Lyrics addons. Can't go wrong with that.

.nomedia files cause the system to ignore ringtones, and then you can't use them as ringtones.

This is a big plus, I'm using this Equalizer (unlock version) to save the presets + Power amp + Good quality headphones = Solved..

If you use the widget, open the app with the lower right icon. Using the back button, you can move between main screen, playlist screen and song screen.
About 10 years ago, Samsung presented Touchwiz which had an awsome Music Player with many features.
One of the features that I liked most was the "Music Square".
Music square was a part of the music player that came with Touchwiz.
It shows 4 sides: Joyfull, Exciting, Passionate and Calm
And It was able to recognise rhythm of the song and put it on the right place among sides, beside, it would allow you to listen to the song that have a same rhythm.
For those who can't remeber, this video shows you the user interface of the music player.
(2:42)
So, here in the 2022, I really need a music player that could do the same thing for me.
I don't even know what to search!
Anyone has an idea or know any app that contains such music square thing?
