BRING BACK THE STEAM MUSIC PLAYER!

[VengeancE]

i always used to play steam games and also using steam music player in the background where i'm listening my favorite selective songs from my hard drive but this new steam ui totally fu*ked my old music player!

either give us the music player where we can play music from hard drive or give us an option to change into old ui where we can use the steam old music player again u guys also block the "-vgui" command where people used to use old ui for this reason!

i can still change the steam into old ui if i want right now, where i can disable the steam new updates with some commands and modify the cfg file, i can still do that but i don't wanna force it!

so i humbly request u guys i don't know who gave u this idea to make steam music player into paid music player where people have to buy music from steam store this idea will never gonna work only maybe rich streamers will buy music but not ordinary people like us!

BRING BACK THE OLD MUSIC PLAYER...!!!

Why not just use one of the many free music players out on the internet. It would do the same thing.

I use an old copy of winamp. You can use it in the background and even setup media keys to play/pause, next/previous track and so on.

3rd party music players are far better then what was in steam.

there is a reason why i said i want my old steam media player back!

windows 10 has a default media player already inside but why i wanna alt tab between games and change song or something when steam media player can always come up on steam overlay when i play games!

perhaps u should think before u reply this type of nonsense!

I was just replying to the person who said they were using an old copy of Winamp, letting them know it's still kind of supported.

Yup I know, but an old version works just fine, heck I don't even bother to install it, just move it to a new system, run it, add in all my songs to the play list and then save it. At one point I ran the same version for over 10 or 15 years. At least 3 different versions of windows, countless reinstalls. lol

Because you don't need to alt tab out between rounds. You can setup a large queue of songs and just let them play. You can set up different sets for different kinds of games if you want. I personally just dump all my songs into one list and if I don't want to listen to a song, I hit the next button and go to the next song. I don't have to alt tab out or anything. Can even stop, pause or play a song without alt tabbing out.

another music app also take some ram and cpu usage when playing games and that extra usage can be effect on gaming performance also if you have a very very low end pc!
for an example 6gb ddr3 ram and a dual core cpu so everything matters for low end pc people, steam music player don't take any extra cpu or ram usage!

u guys still missing the point here... the real point is why steam doing this? why $7.7 billion dollar company need money even if u play music? why steam became this much cheap? people always despise "microtransaction" ingame or outside and steam starting to doing this and we should make our voice not to support this!

They are removing it because they are either going to add in something better later when they drop older OS support, or they just don't want to bother wasting money on it because very few people bothered to use the feature.

I'm pretty sure its the second one because there are so many

Winamp on my system takes around .1% cpu (often dropping down to 0%) and a whole whopping 9 megs of ram (this is with a custom skin someone made years ago, a list of thousands of songs and playing a song at the time).

If you are really worried about that little tiny bit of cpu and ram usage.... you have bigger problems cause Steam keeps growing in cpu and ram usage.

I doubt you or anyone else who complains about other programs using too much cpu or ram even know how much ram and cpu usage the inbuilt music player uses cause its so connected with steam, I don't think it shows up on its own in Task Manager and the cpu and ram uses for steam is always going up and down and is already over the multi gig of ram usage.
