Since I've bought my first android (optimus one) I've kept wondering why youtube iOS app was allowed to play music in background and android one wasn't allowed to... So I've started doing some research and I've come up with an app called Queue tube which did exactly this, played just the music and not the video. Unluckily this isn't a very good app and with ics it slows down incredibly all the system.
So back again searching I've found this app PVSTAR+. This app for me is AMAZING it can do what I've just written like in iOS but can still play the video and it has many more features than youtube app also if you don't want to use it for background streaming.
I've shared this cause I've seen I'm not the only person interested in it
p.s. it's a free app so it's not ad! and it's chinese and I'm italian
So there are several different music streaming services out there, who in essence have the same music and pricing structure.
What I am asking is which has the best performing app (not service) on Android 4?
My vote is Deezer as I use it daily on my Desire and it is quite good but not perfect.
Rdio looks like a very well developed app, whereas Spotify has several negative reviews.
Opinions?
I love turntable.fm when it works lol.
And I like soundcloud as well.
Normally I use Sony music Unlimited because of the sheer number of albums available unfortunately it isn't available officially for the nexus and the side load crashes.
I've fallen back to Pandora, tune in and rdio

MortPlayer is free and my new favorite that has more advanced features is PowerAmp
Most of the time I use Google Play Music since I've got over 1k songs already up, and they let you have a max of 20k songs. I can't imagine being able to find 20k songs that I actually like. No syncing across my computer/phone/tablet, just upload the files once into Google Play Music and then stream it anywhere.
The rest of the time I use Pandora.
So is Google Play Music the online store to rival iTunes that is only available in the US? Or is it the Android "Music" app to play local MP3s?
Pandora is interesting but also only in the US...!

Agreed. Our N7 is our first tablet, and first Android device and I immediately liked the 20,000 song storage ability.
Love xda, getting some great ideas from just browsing around here. :good:

Google Play Music lets you store songs you own, in the "Google Cloud", allowing you to play your songs from your phone/tablet/pc. You literally can upload all your mp3s into it - no questions asked.
You can also play music locally with it. And then the Google Play store also has music you can purchase which is added to your collection.
:good:

How do i store music in the cloud? I have like 10 gigs of music on my phone I wanna share at least some with my nexus 7.

I know Deezer lets you do the same as Play Music. You can upload to the "My MP3s" section of your Deezer account and stream them through the app.
It works quite well, but in Offline Mode obviously only the albums you download are available not any of the My MP3s tracks.
Also one flaw of Deezer is you cannot sync a single track for Offline playback, only full Albums.
My favorites in favorite order:
N7
Google Music
Cubed
Jango
I do own Poweramp, but like N7 better. I find Jango much nicer than Pandora. Cubed is just visually cool. I use Google Music on my PC at work 90% of the day.
edit:: sorry, I missed the "streaming" comment. Therefore GM and Jango only.
For playing music, the answer is simple - Neutron. It is amazing. What's even better is that you can get a special version for Tegra devices. Here's a link:

You want the NeutronMP_64.apk. If you are an audiophile like me, then you will be in heaven. Grab a good pair of headphones (NuForce is an amazing brand that not many people know about) and enjoy!!

i think the only way to upload is to install the music manager on your pc. you'll then select the folders you want it to upload.
NeutonMP is awesome for its sound quality , but I hate its interface. I love n7 player interface but their sound quality isnt as awesome as neutonMP.
I'd bought both Poweramp and N7 and switch between them. Using Poweramp more and more. Like the album art display much better, more sound adjustments (not that it matters much on a Nexus 7). N7 starting losing album art (or not finding it), so it's not getting used much.

Not too sure if this is already been posted but I know it's a function/feature we've all been dying to use: the ability to stream Google Music to a 3rd party app besides the the stock one.
I've been using it for about a day now on the PlayerPro music player & it works pretty darn great.
Anyhow, enough talk & on to the show: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2169761

About a week into it or so. It does have its quirks where the system file that hosts the script becomes unmounted but a simple sync & remount solves the problem.
I've also noticed that if you add music to your Google Play library the GMusicFS app will not auto sync your music, you have to do it manually in order to get the music to be recognized in whatever 3rd party player you're using.
I've also used various music players such as Winamp & JetAudio & both work great as well.
An added bonus is no more tiny widget via Google Play Music, you get to use the larger widget that comes with those alternate players plus the ability to view lyrics & tweak the sound that these players have built in; something the Google Play Music app lacks.
I used to be subscribe for YouTube music but I no longer do and miss being able to street music while screen is off. Etc. Is there any third party apps that does this free?.

I am using that Currently. Was looking more for a dedicated music app. Is there a YouTube music version similar to YouTube vance
Google music for me
iHeartRadio works for me :good:
I personally use Spotify since it is available on more devices, like my gear s3 frontier, or my echo devices
Play music, YouTube music, and Spotify for me. I don't think there is an app that plays mucic (without advertisment) with the screen off for free.

Spotify premium for me, and then I also download some music separate from Spotify as well
Google Play Music still with the original $7.99 intro price. Have all my old music uploaded to it and enjoy commercial free YouTube Red. I watch more YouTube than regular shows if anything.
Look for Ymusic-Youtube in XDA Labs... No need to root....
Google play music. I love the playlists that are based upon time mood and location
I love Spotify
I switched from Spotify to Google Play Music for a few months but ended up going back to Spotify just recently because they do a much better job creating and updating curated playlists and stations.
I prefer the Google Play Music UI but Spotify wins out in every other category.
Spotify , Tune In Radio , YouTube for music, Sirius XM

Hi All,
Is there any app on play store to download english songs. If so please suggest.
Poweramp
Retro Music player pro
Phonograph
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2728110
With an ironic name, Retro Music Player is definitely one of the most beautiful music players on Android in my opinion.
I am looking for a app that can download songs. Also any music player that can play search and play podcast inbuilt. No third party app please.
You can use Google Play to purchase songs. Or you could use streaming services like Spotify, last.fm and others.
