MediaMonkey has the ability to copy and paste songs from the player to your iPod Touch and almost any other mp3 device. There is iTunes but to some like me, it's a little too bulky and slow for those who just want to sync their music with their iPods. If you really take a liking to MediaMonkey, cough up a few bucks and upgrade to the Gold version, which will open up all of the program’s functionalities like finding missing tracks or creating auto (smart) playlists.Īs much as I love Winamp and Spider Player for Audio files, both lack the ability to sync audio files to mp3 players. While the browser and web radio are fairly limited, MediaMonkey allows you to rip your custom CDs and connects to most portable music devices. This original music manager is more than capable of organizing a very large music library and offers advanced tagging management rarely seen in other music applications. However version 3.0 is planning on incorporating this to the application.ĭespite these drawbacks, we recommend MediaMonkey to anybody looking for a solid alternative to iTunes or Winamp. We were disappointed with the web radio selection, which only features Shoutcast and Icecast, and were surprised to see no sign of podcasts anywhere in the application.
However, unlike Songbird, where you can type in a URL, browse and save your favorite music blogs and sites, MediaMonkey only allows you to browse their selection of online stores. If you feel like completing your library with a couple of fresh albums you can browse sites like Amazon, Barnes and Noble or AllPosters and purchase tracks. The music manager also lets you synchronize with your portable music devices like your iPod or iRiver. MediaMonkey’s versatility doesn’t stop there. Budding DJs will enjoy the auto-DJ mode, which mixes tracks for you and the Party Mode, which blocks your configuration but lets anybody play their favorite tune. Create a virtual CD of your favorite tracks and let MediaMonkey do its job. If you want to make your own mix CDs, you’ll be happy to know that MediaMonkey rips and burns CDs and DVDs. MediaMonkey also supports Winamp plugins and visualizations plus skins can be applied to spice up the interface. You can also rename and move multiple files thanks to the auto-organize function. The program can clean up your tags, move information into the correct categories and synchronize tags for selected tracks. You can automatically fill in missing details with info from Amazon or Filename. Every time a track is added, the program will verify its tags. MediaMonkey has made its reputation on its advanced tagging management feature.
