MusicBee is the ideal application for managing and playing music on your home computer. It allows you to efficiently organize large collections of files, listen to podcasts, audiobooks and Internet radio stations, edit tags, and synchronize music with portable media players, etc. The program has been continuously developed since 2008 and, despite its small size, has functionality that would not be ingrained in the majority of the most popular media players.

What attracts attention at the beginning is an extremely friendly and refined, although not available in the Polish language version, graphical interface. Another significant advantage of MusicBee is the minimal need for system resources. When working with a collection of over 150 MP3 files, the application can be satisfied with less than 30 MB of operating memory, without interfering with other programs running in the system.

As already mentioned, MusicBee's capabilities are considerable and include much more than just playing back and managing the music collection. At the same time, it should be noted that this is not a typical multimedia combine harvester, in which a large number of functions is superfluous for most users. The program has been equipped with exactly the same functionality as expected in this type of software.

It includes tools for efficient and convenient creation of playlists with advanced options for viewing, filtering and organizing music, automatic addition of audio files from selected folders to libraries, editing and managing tags, ripping the content of Audio-CD discs to MP3, OGG, FLAC, WMA formats, and synchronization with portable players. In the case of the last option, the program is able to perform the operation of sound normalization and format conversion in the so-called flight. Another important element of the program, to which attention should be paid is the player itself.

It allows you to play music in high quality, while offering many interesting features. These include a built-in equalizer, an option to download covers and lyrics from the Internet, and the ability to work in full, compact (similar to Winamp) and mini modes (the desktop displays only a small bar, from which we manage the music played). While listening, we can be accompanied by effective visualizations, including those with photos of the artists of the currently played songs.

What's more, information about them can be viewed directly from the application level on services such as Last.fm or Wikipedia. Also noteworthy is the Auto DJ function. For special music fans, the creators have prepared options to inform about upcoming premieres and releases of new albums and concerts to be held in the nearest future in and around a selected location.
