Listen 1 is an open-source music player that aggregates search and playback from multiple Chinese streaming platforms (NetEase Cloud Music, QQ Music, Kugou, Kuwo, Bilibili, Migu, Qianqian) in one interface. It ships as a Chrome/Firefox/Edge browser extension, an Electron desktop app for Windows/Mac/Linux, a Python web-server version, and a React Native mobile app.

Use cases

  • search and play songs across multiple Chinese music streaming sites in one place
  • avoid switching between music apps because of copyright restrictions
  • create and manage playlists combining tracks from different platforms
  • automatically fall back to another platform when a song's source is unavailable
  • listen to music in the browser without installing a desktop app
  • play music offline on Windows, Mac, or Linux via a desktop client

When to choose

  • you listen to music hosted on Chinese platforms like NetEase, QQ Music, Kugou, Kuwo, Bilibili, or Migu
  • you want one unified player and playlist library instead of juggling several streaming sites
  • you prefer a free, open-source, ad-free player with no donations or accounts required

When to avoid

  • you primarily use international services like Spotify, Apple Music, or YouTube Music
  • you need licensed, fully legal access to copyrighted music - the project has faced DMCA takedowns and platform blocking
  • you require high-fidelity lossless audio or official offline downloads with DRM support
