The doubleTwist app is the best Android music player when compared to other players. It works really well and is easy to control. The twist here is that it actually is a PC based application. However, this software allows users to manage media on their Android device through a software interface, just like iTunes does for an iPhone. After installing doubleTwist, point out where the music, videos and pictures are on the PC. doubleTwist locates them and then the user can access them from the player. You can download it from here.
