Song picker for Android

Question

Is there a song picker for Android that can be invoked programatically?

I'm looking for something similar to iPhone's MPMediaPickerController, which shows a view from where the user can select songs.

You can send an intent of type "ACTION_PICK" or "ACTION_GET_CONTENT". For example:

    Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
    i.setType("audio/*");
    Intent c = Intent.createChooser(i, "Select soundfile");
    startActivityForResult(c,1);

Beware, not every application has a picker. I just got a crittercism report that the activity wasn't found on a customer device. – Shuck
