Mine is Strawberry since it has a ton of options and plays a ton of formats. It's also (distant) fork of Amarok 1.4 and integrates well with KDE Plasma. I'm curious what other people are using these days. What's your favorite player?

I am but a simple man. All my music is FLAC. It is arranged neatly in folders. I just want to select an album to play. I do not need album covers, playlists, search, streaming, tags, lyrics, analyzers, or scrobbling.
Agreed, with the exception of album covers. I like it all to look nice on my Hidizs when I'm on the go.
How do you discover new music? I'm the type that listen to the same thing over and over again but I realized even I rely entirely on autogenerated playlists of Spotify.
Sometimes I poke around Wikipedia and see what other artists collaborated with, influenced, or were influenced by artists I like, and buy their albums.
Sometimes I download highly-rated shows from random artists on Internet Archive's Live Music Archive
Sometimes friends recommend stuff.
How do you download your music?
My client doesn't have to answer that.
Almost got him
If the artist has a way to buy and download from their website, I do that. Otherwise I buy CDs or vinyl and rip them.
This is a great idea.
