The music aspect of the software is generally well-received, allowing users to stream and play audio files, though some face compatibility issues with certain codecs and high bitrate limitations. Users express a desire for more integration with popular music services like Spotify or radio streaming, as the current setup requires music to be stored locally on their devices. Overall, the functionality is appreciated, but enhancements for broader music access would improve the experience.
“You can stream music/audio.”
“This will work with anything; it downloads a new recording device in your sounds that plays music through your mic while still being able to use your mic.”
“But I can't play some audio files; maybe they are not compatible with their codec, or this software has music license protection or something, so we can't play it in public.”
“The only slight problem I have is that I can't share half the music I chose because of the high bitrate.”
“7.5/10 - I wish I could stream radio or Spotify or any other music app through this!”
