Holy shit it's beautiful. Remember when I posted about it two years ago? Shit it now is awesome. A cleaner default theme too. It scrolls unlike iTunes for some reason for me.

Still lets you upload songs to your iPod or Zune.

Yeah.... I've been using this for many months now...
But seriously, I really like it. It has a few problems with album art and whatnot, but a good app overall. thumbup;

Problems with album art? I'm so glad there is an automatic find album art tool. Jesus yes.

The biggest cons I've found is no CD rip or burn on default and my time for like 5% of my songs is disappeared though if I play the song it will sometimes work, and there is no smart shuffle (Plays all the songs in my library on shuffle but the ones with more play count get played more.)

Jesus I can't wait til they let you put videos on here, once they do I'll pretty much have my own personal TV station.

It looks like iTunes, but ugly.

What's wrong with iTunes?

Why are you using an uglier mock-up of iTunes? It's basically the same program except less shiny.

It also has a built-in web browser and add-ons.
It's like a combo of iTunes and Firefox.

pardon my logic but um why would you want to browse the internet from that anyway when you have your main firefox browser

or you just buy a Sony Walkman mp3 player and not have to install a program. All you do is literally drag and drop onto "Content Transfer"
