Power users on Android reach for a fast, dense, pro-grade hub. On the desktop the choices were bloated consumer apps, half-abandoned open-source projects, or single-source players that can't unify IPTV, M3U, and local files. Source is built to end that.
Precise, dense, keyboard-friendly, visually refined — never a bloated consumer app.
