Songbird 1.0 Release Announcement
Songbird Features Page (must see!)
Download Songbird 1.0
For those who don’t know, Songbird is an “open-source customizable music player”. It’s like iTunes but IMHO, far better and without the iGarbage. I had intended to post a review but because of work I just haven’t had the time to write it. So I’ll just leave you with a few thoughts.
-It is wicked fast.
-It is highly customizable for both operation and looks.
-Works perfectly with my iPod Nano (1st Generation).
-There is a Linux version, I haven’t had time to mess with it. (not in the openSUSE repos yet either)
-I haven’t used Songbird since, oh, about version .5ish. All-in-all I’m highly impressed with version 1.0.
-Finally, uh, could we get a not-so-cute version of the icon???
