Skip pricey music subscriptions. Reddit and YouTube deliver endless recommendations, playlists, and tracks. The Headset app for Mac simplifies discovering and creating playlists powered by these platforms.
Headset features four intuitive tabs. The Search tab lets you find song titles, albums, or playlists quickly. Browse featured playlists organized by genre, decade, and top charts.
The Radio tab curates playlists from popular subreddits like r/music, r/Chillout, r/50smusic, and more—sorted by genre, instrument, and decade.
While playing, click the song title to open the now-playing window: save tracks, skip forward/back, view the current playlist, or check the queue for upcoming songs.
A free account lets you save songs and playlists to collections, like tracks as you listen, sync across devices, share collections, and review your listening history.
