Interesting, but I'd have to say that I've been contempt just using an app that doesn't suck (musicolet). The comments about battery could hold a point to me if I were going on a week long trip, or something of the like, but anywhere that would happen for me is somewhere that I wouldn't be taking music/phone for distractions anyway.
I think the finer point I agree with is being able to just have a copy of your own music and play it without being belt-fed opinions or ads. Managing it is always a bit of a pain, but I've got a system that works for me, and MTP on android works better than trying to deal with iTunes in my books.
Musicolet is great. Just dont like how it handles external playlists.
Inuse syncthing to sync music from my NAS to the SD card on my phone.
Pretty much the same setup. I don't really use playlists often though, and currently using syncthing to a NAS.
