SongbirdDid anyone try Songbird? As a Linux user I’m always in search of a good audio player. Of course there is Amarok and of course there is Audacious but in my eyes there is not much in between. Amarok is quite large and didn’t really work out at all on my 600MHz P3. On the other hand Audacious is quite tiny but not made for handling large music archives like, .. let’s say.. mine ;)
More accidentally I discovered a new audio player called Songbird. It somehow uses mozillas xul and seems to be a good compromise. To be honest, I didn’t test it too much so far. This might relate to my love-hate relationship to some other media player. Obviously the design is somehow inspired by this specific product ;)
The current version 0.6 is still alpha, so please be patient. Maybe at some day it becomes a real alternative to the mentioned audio players. At least I already love it for it’s logo :D
