I wasn't sure whether to put this into here or mobiles, but here will do!
M-I-L has just got a car with Android Auto. She doesn't want to pay for any subscription based music service, but would quite like to be able to play music she already owns (on CD) via her phone.
So, we've got an external CD drive so she can rip the music to her laptop in the first place ready to copy to her phone.
But I'm used to Apple infrastructure, so a couple of tips are needed so I can help her accurately.
Firstly, the ripping to the laptop. I would normally just use iTunes. But is there a better choice because she's android based?
And then I assume her phone will have a built in music player. But is there going to be an optimum way of getting the music files on to it? Maybe an app for windows? Or is the music folder on the phone going to be obvious so I can just copy the files across myself?
I'm trying to find out from her what her phone is for sure, but I think I remember it being a Samsung of some kind.
Thanks for any advice!
