    foobar2000 is great. I have good memories from using it on Windows. The iOS app, while functional, is too ugly for my taste ☹️

    I have a strict policy regarding ads in my blog. They are labeled as such, and I don't promote them in communal places like here. Just happy to found a great indie app and decided to share :)

    Even to the USD 429 iPhone SE (2022).

    But it pales in comparison to the 399 2016 SE.

    Yeap. Also, retail pricing in Brazil already contains all the taxes. In the US, if I'm not mistaken, they are added on checkout, right?

    Not the same if you don't use cases. (My case and, I imagine, @Caelum's too.)

    Even here this conversation!? Brazilian taxes are lower than the most OECD countries. And if Apple can sell 16e at a competitive price, they can do the same with the 17, I guess.
