Plain and simple - drag from directory and play - no playlists!
This is just what I and a lot of other people have been looking for: an app that just plays the songs directly from the (.mp3, .wav, etc.) files rather than having to create playlists in iTunes. Also, if you make your own recordings and edit songs and use this player, you know exactly which version you are playing back, because you put it there. With iTunes, you don’t really know which version of a file is being played. I have tried repeatedly with iTunes to tie something in a playlist to a specific file, but it sets up this directory structure of its own where it places files that are brought into iTunes, so the file that iTunes references is not the one that you actually created and labeled. Configuration control is impossible with iTunes. With this player, you know what file is being used to play the song, and there’s no shenanigans going on in the background with file and directory manipulation as with iTunes.
