MusicBee comes as a ZIP file but installs and uninstalls without issues. Overall, we were quite impressed with MusicBee it was easy to use and brought several really useful features together in a way that we hadn't seen before. The program's online Help file is well written and thorough. MusicBee also provides access to a wide variety of Internet radio stations, as well as local concert listings and upcoming album releases. The auto DJ feature is much more than just a song shuffler with this function of the program you can customize the way that songs are selected, choosing tracks that are similar to the seed song, favoring more highly rated tracks, setting a minimum gap before the same artist is repeated, and much more.

If you have songs with incomplete album information, MusicBee can automatically search for and update that information for you, and it has several other tools to help you organize your music collection. The program's interface is plain and intuitive, with a list of tracks dominating the center of the screen and a list of directories down the left side, just like many other music players. If you're in the market for a new way to manage your music collection, you should take a look at it. MusicBee is one of those rare programs that covers all the basics and includes some pretty cool extras. Input is basic, restricted and cumbersome.All too often we encounter music players that are either lacking basic features or crammed with features that aren't particularly useful. It is the best music manager you could wish for for desktop use.īut an Android device usually has a small display, multiple panels are pretty much impossible to have, and it is mostly useful for output.

MusicBee excels on a desktop with a large screen, big libraries, many panels in view, etc.

So unless he announces a change of mind on that, an Android version of MusicBee is not going to happen.īut, as a long time MusicBee user, and an only very recent Android droid, I also flirted with a foggy desire to have MusicBee on my Android device. First of all, for as far as I can recall, MusicBee's sole developer has clearly stated that he has no interest in developing an Android version of MusicBee. Patrick’s Day party returns this week with corned beef and cabbage, lamb stew, sandwiches, french dip and live music.
