Motorola Droid
droid music question
Can I plug the Droid into my car radio auxiliary plug and use it as a music device? Which software app would be best for that? I have this app called Listen that lets me collect podcasts, think I could listen to them using the auxiliary?
thx

You don't need an app... you use a normal headset plug and your phone pipes the music out. Assuming your car uses a standard 3.5 jack that is. Music sounds great as long as your system didn't skimp on the cable.
For music, I use Meridian and Pandora. Google Listen is amazing if you listen to podcasts.

Is Google Listen something that will work like iTunes to play music or is there something else that Droid uses to play music?
I'd like to be able to leave my iPod at home after I get the Droid.

Google Listen is a podcast player. You can stream them directly through the app. If you listen to a lot of Podcasts, get this app.
If you listen to mainly music from CD's, you'll want an app called Meridian. This acts like the music player on your ipod. It's not as advanced (no genius playlists, or cover flow) but it plays music just fine, and you can create playlists, etc.
You also want to look at an app called Pandora. It is a program that you can type in the name of your favorite artist or song and it will create a radio station based on your selection. The music is streamed from online, so you're not limited to what you have on your device.
For example, if you set it to Styx (my dad's fav group) you'll listen to a radio s...

1. I listen to a bunch of podcasts.
I used Google Listen to get them all.
2. You can plug in a 3.5mm aux-input cable for your cars stereo connection and use the droid to play all your music off the 16gb memory card.
3. You can get a separate memory card reader, pop your memory card into it and simply copy your MP3 files over to it and when you put the card back in the droid it will see all the music on the card.
4. Pandora is a streaming music player that requires you to be on wifi or 3G and if your signal is bad or you get a call the music will stop.
5. Pandora is also a planet that 10foot tall blue people live on in the movie Avatar. Which I have yet to see but I hear they are the Anti-smurfs. 😲)
6. DROID RULES, I AM RETU...

They're not the anti Smurfs so much as they are more like feral smurfs... kinda like Smurfs are Ewoks and the aliens in Pandora are Wookies.
Oh, and the movie is great imo.
For music (but especially video) check out Meridian.
I'm using the new 2.1 player for music which is a lot better than the stock one, but until you get that, Meridian is superior.
