Sound and personalization

Recommended alternative player
VLC media player — Free
If you prefer a simpler, cross-platform option that handles a wide variety of file types and streaming sources, VLC is a reliable substitute. It doesn’t focus on music discovery the way QQ Music does, but it excels at compatibility and straightforward playback across macOS and other systems.
