UltraMP3 from Lonely Cat Games is a new addition to the group of music players for Series 60. It is a handy application with cool graphical user interface, allowing you to listen to your favorite music on your Symbian mobile device. UltraMP3 loads and plays music in MP3 format, as well as MOD, XM, IT, S3M. The player has built-in playlist editor, which allows you to arrange music files on your phone, and play them in any order you wish. High degree of customization allows you to choose from one of more available skins, and skin editor ships with application - in a few simple steps you may create your own skin. Handful of nice skins is shipped already with the application.

With UltraMP3, you may take your favorite songs everywhere with you. Additionally to mp3 playback, the player supports module music format - there're tens of thousands of module music freely downloadable from the internet - use links below and visit dedicated sites. If you have grown on Amiga and 386 PC should know what's module music about, if you don't know, just give it a try. The advantage of module music (over mp3 music for example) is that even on your memory-limited phone device, you may have hours of music available (approximately there're 2 hours of play time for 10 MB of files size). Anyway, today's size of MMC cards allows you to have one or two mp3 albums in your phone, so just upload it and listen.
