does anyone know of a good app that replaces the old iMusic app? I use to love downloading songs from iMusic but its no longer available in the market so I want to know if there any other mp3 downloading apps out there for our phones. Yes I know I can just connect my phone to my pc and move music through that but I like the simplicity of just downloading them directly onto my phone.
You can still get imusic from their website. Its just not on the market anymore. The site explains why.

Ive gotten a ton of free mp3 music from the "Mp3 Download" free app.
Seems to have as good a selection in hard rock genres I like as IMusic does.

thanks for the replies guys...i found music junk app in the market and seems to be working fine so its going to be my new replacement for iMusic
What your favorite music Apps for your phone and why?
Personally mine are
1) Solo Guitar - a fun guitar app to play chords etc
2) Ultimate Guitar Tabs - now I can learn/play new songs much easier and have them on the go stored ob my phone
3) Guitar tools - I can tune my guitar with a tuner from this app!
4) Soundhound - I can find any song I want on the go
What are yours?

A couple of months ago I would have said Audio Galaxy, but now I'd say Google Music. With me, it's all about remote access. Google Music wins hands down for having both an Android app and a web interface. Means I have my music collection available anywhere where there's an internet connection. Win.
As for music apps that aren't just mp3 players (as you originally mention in the OP), then Caustic wins every time.

Full synth studio with drum machine, pattern making, song making, samples, synths - the works. If you like making music then this app is a MUST, but is a tad small on a phone. Perfect on a tablet.

Really depends what you need from that and how you normally organise your music.
Personally I prefer to have a directory and file-based organisation, as most of the programs I've used until now tend to screw up and misread the albums especially if you've got various artists' albums. I do like listening to music, and rarely I'm shufflin'.
Anyway, recently I've started using MortPlayer Music: maybe it's not the best looking one, but does what I need and doesn't drain the battery too much.
poweramp has it all
Can't live without Google Music.
google music is my favourite, fits perfect to ics roms, and works really stable and looks quite good..
but its annoying that i can't choose ringtones with gmusic -.-
there is also a MIUI v4 music port on the net, looks really good but not stable at all
I really like cubed player.
Thanks for all your replies. I suppose I'll have to try them all out and decide for myself lol!

I can confirm that Gear is working with poweramp, it can control music and display metadada ( song name etc...). Just open a music file with an file.explorer and set the type of file.to be open with de desired program. After that the gear will work work with it.

It works mediocre with Google music. It often gets confused with samsung music app and will stop controlling Google music.

did you have to do anything to it? i wonder if i rooted the note and deleted the samsung music app if that would help?
I couldnt get google music to play. Even if google music was active in memory, if I pressed next track on media player on watch - Samsung player would play.
I needed a way to make google music the default player. Google search turned up:
Default App Manager Lite (free)
By appiator
Just use the above app to make google music your default music app. Now gear always plays google music. Plus no need to uninstall Samsung music player or root gn3.

SO, just to be 100% clear before I drop $300 lol, this will make it so the stock Gear music controller controls PowerAmp? As well as S Voice launching through PowerAmp for music? My Motoactv just died and the only way I could justify moving away from it is if this had proper remote features to the PowerAmp since I need my custom EQs for my 86 BMW's speakers. If this is all true, as long as I love my Note 3 coming Monday I will be ordering a Gear ASAP! Thanks in advance guys!
It seems that you need to start the desired music player first on the phone. After that all the commands from gear goes to the opened app. That's my case. I tried to set power amp as the default with app manager lite but it seems that doesn't work.

Thanks! While that may not be perfect, I think I'm sold. If anybody has it working seamlessly please post!

So I have to put songs into the gear itself?
If so, how much memory does the gear even have? Lol

Wait, I'm confused. It appears that some are talking about controlling PowerAmp on the Note through the Media Controller while some are talking about running it on the Gear itself. I want to know if I can use the Music controllers on music players besides Samsung's. Also, I've heard that as soon as the Gear times out and the display turns off that you have to navigate back to the media controls. Is this true and is there any way to avoid it?

Thats where I'm sorta confused myself. I wanna know if I can use my gear to control Poweramp on my phone. Everytime I use the Media Controller, it opens up Samsung music app. As for when the display turns off, I press the power button on the Gear and it's still in the Media Controller. Its cool how it shows song of name etc.

The walkman on the Z1 is awful, it crashes fairly frequently, skips songs randomly, doesn't show album artwork properly and keeps trying to sign into the Sony network.

Walkman works great for me, the best player I have ever had...
The only downside is the lack of lossless formats support...

I said no google play links on poweramp!
Wecond of all, I need more tuning of the player, I have good headphones, so I want something more

Walkman is the best music app I have used. Use the download music info to get all the album art. It has never forced closed on me on my z zl or z1. Try and clear app data. As for links buy the app from google play, you won't find links to pirated software on XDA support the devs.

Not sure why your having so many problems with the Walkman Player. Have you tried clearing the data? I used many of the music players and even purchased a few (like PowerAmp) but for a free included app, Walkman is great. I fix album art with a mp3 editor app. Are you looking for a pirated copy of PowerAMP? Its worth the price.

I used to use Google Music as my primary player but I am in love with the walkman player. I used to use GMusicFS to mount those songs in Walkman but eventually found it easier to just keep my favorite albums on my phone as even with that I had skips in my music. I do keep it installed though in case I want to listen to anything else. At about 18,000 songs so far, I love that service.
