The stock android music app was, last time I punished myself by using it, terrible. This cloud integration stuff is so damn pushy. I wish there was something out there with only the features of winamp, but enough UI polish that it doesn't look like some college kid's hobby project.

I don't use Android currently, but when I did, PowerAmp was a great music player. Simple interface. Would automatically find sound files wherever you put them. Played most formats including flac. Worked very well with my BT headphones. Never had a problem with it.
For a long time it was also the poster boy for how async programming is terrible. Press next twice in a row and the song that played was whichever song loaded last, sometimes after playing a bit of the one that loaded first. That's if it didn't crash of course.
