Hi Mike – If I sync music with say Songbird or Foobar, Which player I should use on my Samsung Galaxy S so that playlist show up ?

doubleTwist is a media player itself so instead of using it as a bridge between your Android phone and iTunes you can use it as an alternative to iTunes too.

Other options are Songbird (www.getsongbird.com) or Media Monkey (www.mediamonkey.com) but I don’t know how well they sync with Android – never tested it.

foobar2000 (www.foobar2000.org) is also a very simple music player and if you are lucky you might be able to find a component (which is pretty much like a plugin) to synchronize with Android

doubleTwist is using it’s own Playlists but you are able to import existing Playlists from iTunes.

As for Android Manager I’m not sure since I don’t use iTunes on Windows.

You can use doubleTwist (www.doubletwist.com) if you only want to sync your media. Otherwise you could look into Android Manager (http://global.mobileaction.com/product/product_AM.jsp).

I haven’t tested any of those with an Galaxy S so I don’t know how well they play with the Samsung Android Firmware.
