I thought today that I would let you know about a new music management/player called Songbird. They have just released version 1.0 to the public and it is looking good. Songbird is open-source and works on all operating systems. Some of the cool features are:
- Mashtape – discover flickr photos, YouTube vids, biographies, Google news and more for the currently playing artist.
- Easy import from iTunes.
- Customized Add-ons
A lot is planed for this player one of the features on the way that I love is watch folders so when new music goes into the folder it will be imported into Songbird. iPods are currently supported but not the phone or touch. This can only be a good thing as Apple have owned the media management for a long time now and I know a lot of people are looking for alternatives especially people on a pc. I will be having a play with Songbird over the next few weeks and will report back once I have been able to test it out.
Looks interesting dude, I’ll have to download it and give it a go.
