    I’ll never understand why people don’t just make playlists of music and save it down locally.

    I had no less than sixteen hours of music in CDs stuffed in my glove box back in college. Would cycle through that maybe once or twice a month. Maybe I’d throw on a little NPR if I was curious about the news. But why on God’s Green Earth would you subject yourself to the garbage radio networks available in the modern era?

      Sending files from one device to another has been made intentionally difficult by phone makers.

        It isn’t really that difficult. I have a cheap, newish Motorola phone (3 years old) and all I have to do is make sure when plugging into the PC I switch the USB mode when it pops up.

        Then it’s literally no different from using the normal file browser. Get you a good media app and find the file storage path. (Hell, Musicolet, a fantastic, free, offline music manager, literally makes you create/select the file path yourself on first launch) then just drag and drop into it like any other folder.

        Or get a program like MusicBee and just have it set to sync that directory.
