Tbh, I'm picky with music players, more than most.

But I've yet to see one that that handles tags, playlists, and organization half as well as even the bog standard android players, much less something like poweramp.

My thing is that right now, I have an android phone that replaces, completely and very well, the three devices I used to have to carry separately when I am out and about. If I have to go back to having multiple devices to have it all, I'm buying a decent used media player, a tomtom or whatever, and a dumb phone. Linux phones would be my preference by a huge margin, but damn. We're talking about problems that have been ironed out well for about a decade on every other platform.
