Playlist? What Playlist?

Have solved my android playlist problem! What problem? The problem that I want to be able to create .m3u playlists on my computer, copy them over to my phone, and play that playlist on my phone. But, hey, all these music players that CLAIM to support playlists only mean that you can create playlists by manually adding one song at a time, inside the app. What a waste of my time!

But I found a simple music app "Little Music Player" which understands .m3u playlists. I do have to convert the playlists so that they point to the files as they are on the android device rather than on my computer, but that's easily scriptable. Which I did.

This problem moved to the top of my to-do list because of another problem: my new bluetooth device which plugs into my stereo system to make it bluetooth enabled, so that I can send music to it via bluetooth. Which I thought I would do via my computer. But it doesn't work. Oh, the computer thinks that it's connected, and the bluetooth device beeps correctly to indicate that it's connected... but no sound comes out. On the other hand, my phone connects to the bluetooth device with no trouble.

Hence, wanting my existing playlists to be able to be played on my phone, so that they can be played on the BIG SPEAKERS of my stereo system instead of the tiny speakers which are on my computer and/or phone.

So yay!
