This is one of the few apps I've been able to find that automatically remembers playback position without any other hassle; no conversion, no going through separate programs; it just works. The UI is pretty awful looking, but that doesn't stop it from being useful.

N70%

Suck

L70%
by L####:

The most inconvenient thing is the null pointer error the program throws up every time it starts as well as when accessing the file system. Perhaps because of tagging the program wants to "scan" directories. For SMB shares this is a serious inconvenience if you have a lot of music files. The scan process goes very slowly. The program crashes frequently during scans. Since I organize my music by directories, tags are unimportant. The problem with tags is that there is never any guarantee of consistency since they're user editable. Tags are only useful for organizing files if the files come from a single source that has ironclad tagging policies and the tags are read only. It's possible to play music with this program but it's clearly not ready for release yet.

I love the seek buttons for the player. They should be plain common sense for every media player out there yet they aren't. This feature is infinitely helpful for me for listening to my lectures, lessons and podcasts! I also like the resume feature. Almost every other media player developer out there are fixated on making snazzy UI with skins and other junk of no utility to you. I believe the other features all follow from the author's similar wisdom. For video, I recommend Geeky video player.
