Looks like somebody needs to tag their music.

Not to bash Songbird, but IMHO BMPx does it better.

Songbird 0.2 is out for Linux, Mac, and Windows.

Giving it a try right now.

I'm already in love with MPD on Linux, but damn, a quick and easy way to get flac and ogg on the Windows workstations at the office! Now that's something.

It looks good and reacts snappily, but it wasn't even able to load my playlist completely before this: *** glibc detected *** free(): invalid next size (fast): 0x08ce4468 ***. Hopefully they will get those glaring errors ironed out. As a concept build, which it is, it looks like it will be a fun program.

Has anyone been able to load their playlist and is willing to report on the memory usage?

Looks pretty good. Nice to see it supports FLAC right out of the box. Will be hard to compete with amaroK though.

It surely looks good, Michael. I'll wait for it to stabilize a bit though.

[James]

Wondering that myself.

I'll give it a try sometime this week though.
