There are a few weird things that come up with you search JRiver deals.
Sometime around 2015 I was looking for a new media player, found MC, and tried it out. After 30 days I was really quite hooked. I decided to pay the price because software developers deserve to get paid for good software. Now 7 years and 10 versions later, I'm really happy I did.
MC has incredible depth. Backups, renames, moving your collection across drives: All of these things are baked in and done in the best way I've personally seen. The expression language, views, and especially PANES are incredibly powerful.
MC helped me take control of my collection. I've often said that I am my own digital librarian. MC lets me do those librarian duties and really control and "own" my collection.
