Namely the wireless dongle and the bluetooth one, both of which don’t rely on proprietary blobs and work with fully free systems out of the box. Not exactly the cheapest thing to outfit on inherited, old systems at ~$50 each, however.
It’s quite a nice player for that purpose, and I was able to move over all of my favorites and ratings without too much trouble either. I chose it purely because it’s FOSS and met my needs on my distro. If you’re willing to use freeware on something like Windows specifically though, idk.
