I didn't think this program would ever really interest me, but that screencast shows off some pretty cool features.

The light text on dark background got annoying pretty quickly, though (yes, I know it's themeable). Being XUL-based, it's as sluggish as anyother XUL apps are on Linux. And Songbird screws up the track order of all my (properly tagged) albums.

I guess it'll improve significantly by 1.0.

And I've created an installation script for it.
