About

Headset is a simple music player for Mac, Windows and Linux with integrated YouTube search, a home screen with popularity list by genres and eras, and best of all, a radio powered by Reddit.

Headset takes the songs that are shared in over 80 music subreddits, categorizes them and plays them automatically.

It is a great and pretty unique way to find new music as it is chosen by other humans like you and not by algorithms.

Security

No known CVEs for Headset.

Coverage is best-effort and depends on a winget package mapping to an NVD CPE entry. Absence here is not a guarantee of safety.
