What is MusicPiped?
MusicPiped is an open-source ad-free music streaming application and web client. It allows users to search for and play audio tracks hosted on YouTube, providing an alternative to paid streaming services.
Some key features of MusicPiped include:
- Ad-free streaming experience
- Ability to search YouTube's catalog of songs
- Create and manage playlists
- Offline download support
- Light and dark themes
- Cross-platform - available as a web app, Android, iOS, Windows, Mac, and Linux application
- Open source under GNU GPLv3
As an open source project relying on YouTube for streaming, the music selection may not be as robust as paid services. However, MusicPiped provides a free alternative focused on privacy. It does not collect user data. The interface is clean and intuitive as well.
For those looking to stream music freely without ads or accounts, and who do not mind a catalog limited to what's available on YouTube, MusicPiped is an excellent option to consider.
