Here, the player is not limited to just one download site, but has access to multiple sites such as Amazon, Discogs, FreeDB, Google Images, LastFM and Yahoo. The audio bit rate is also adjustable, but is limited to 160 kbps in the free version, which is a little too restrictive.Ī very notable feature in the free version of Helium Music Manager is the ID3 tagging option. Supported formats include MP3, WAVE, FLAC and Ogg Vorbis. Here, you can choose which format you'd like to convert files to. The option of converting an unsupported audio format is also made available via the Options menu. In addition, the user gets to specify the audio formats that need to be transferred.

The Music Explorer is also home to some nifty little options that allow renaming of multiple files, editing tags, creating audio CDs and synchronization with a variety of portable devices.

In addition to this, there are another 13 preset playlists that help in navigating through various audio files. Having said that, the player's Music Explorer allows you to sort songs quite well in accordance to the album, title, genre and rating. So unless you press, the file search doesn’t begin scanning. What it lacks is the ‘search as you type’ feature that other audio players such as iTunes and Winamp feature. You can also locate files by using the search bar that’s placed towards the top-right corner of the screen. Here, you can also specify the audio length that needs to be searched for, however this sort of search usually generates too many search results.

The top section allows you to switch between the application's Music Explorer, playlists and search (either by album, artist, title, or a number of other options) function. Here, you can choose to view songs either by artist, file name, title or album, thereby allowing easier navigation. The player features a neat interface, which contains a Music Explorer towards the left, while the right half of the screen gives a summary of the files within the library. However, the player doesn’t support playback of video files. Helium Music Manager is a free audio player that supports various audio formats.

Nevertheless, there are handful of audio players that come with almost the same set of features. When it comes to media players, there is almost nothing that can go up against Apple’s formidable iTunes, a player that currently has approximately 80 percent market share amongst music players.
