Headset

Linux: Windows:

Headset is a simple music player for Mac, Windows and Linux with integrated YouTube search, a home screen with popularity list by genres and eras, and best of all, a radio powered by Reddit. Headset takes the songs that are shared in over 80 music subreddits, categorize them and plays them automatically. It's a great way to find new music and a pretty unique one as it is chosen by other humans like you, not by algorithms.
