HTC music sync

[AcE XBOX]

How would I sync my music to my Hero? Would I use Windows Media? Does it also sync playlists or do I have to do that manually?

I haven't tried this yet, but it looks good, in theory. Seems like people are having mixed results, though hopefully they fix the bugs soon.

Thanks guys! I'll check it out tommorow and see how it works. I want the playlists to work though. I don't wanna spend a lot of time on a playlist only for it not to work on the phone. It worked great on my touch pro but my hero wont pick up the play list.

http://Doubletwist.com, this app works almost like ITunes but you can also get video from Youtube synced to your device.

I've been using Banshee under Linux, seems to work well

I've tried Media Monkey this should be ok for most people. I didn't like how it changed some file names. It also trashed a couple compilations, by splitting it up into artists.

I've read good things about Song Bird but never tried it.

Double Twist looked great. But I really don't want to sign up for another service and what the heck was it downloading on the first launch ?

There also is winamp, but that program has gone downhill over the years and I can't suggest it.

I use Foobar to manage my collection from my pc and I but it lacks a sync feature.

Most of these have to many features for me, so I just have a directory and use a batch file to copy my folders over.
