I know some of you have gone complies FOSS, but I believe if the developer wants to make money from their apps, there's noting wrong with it, as long as they are ethical. So what are your favorite non-foss apps?

I have an iPhone. While VLC is good, foobar2000 Mobile is really the only free music player that works the way I want.

iTunes no-longer runs under Wine, so the official Music app is not an option.

EDIT: Clarified that I meant the Apple Music app, not the streaming service.

If you can get past how questionable the developers are, Cider is an option for using Apple Music on Linux.

I meant the app, not the streaming service, but thanks!

(All of my music is on CD and in Ogg Opus format)
