I'm still on Rhythmbox but at this point it's a hassle to use something else because the metadata (album name, track id, etc) would break. I used to test Amberol, Lollypop, GNOME music 3 years ago and the metadata requires fixing.

I also kind of care with the vanity number like play counts that is already recorded.
