FYI--If you use winamp, be sure to update to the latest here. There
was a pretty big security issue exposed with playlists last week.
This release fixes the vulnerability.

yep gnome, but then again who's to say I don't toss KDE on for

amarok is a very good reason to switch :)

you're listening a song... one click and you see the artist's bio in
wikipedia(*)... another click and you get the lyrics for that song(*)

you've got also dynamic playlists based in artists which are similar to
the current song..

edits id tags very nicely... (though i prefer easytag if i need to
rename the files)

album cover manager...

lets you configure podcasts, radio streams...

it's an audio player on steroids!! :P



(*) if its on the net, obviously
