>>>>>>Hi,
>>>>>>
>>>>>>I have about 11 GB of MP3 files on my PC. They are all in subfolders of a parent folder \music.
>>>>>>I DO NOT want using iTunes.
>>>>>>I would like to copy these MP3 files to my iPhone so that I can play them directly from iPhone. Is there an app that would allow this? I think I know how to connect an iPhone to the PC (via USB cable). But I am not sure if I can create a folder on iPhone to copy all these files. The iPhone has about 70GB free so that space is not a problem.

>>>>>>Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

>>>>>Ah yes -- I too have recently gone to the dark side and bought an IPhone (still have my android as well though). Best bet is probably VLC ---

>>>Might be better off copying the .mp3 files to the phone and then playing them with VLC.

>>This would be ideal. But I do not know how and where to copy .mp3 files to the phone. That is, I can copy .mp3 files to a folder on the iCloud. But I cannot figure out how to point VLC to this folder.
