Songbird - The Open-Source Music Player
I've just discovered Songbird - desktop music player with integrated Last.fm, Flickr, YouTube, Hypem and Google Blog search. It runs on Mozilla's XULRunner platform thus, capable of running on Microsoft Windows, Apple Mac OS X, Solaris and Linux. You can also extend Songbird's functionality with lots of Add-ons! As Aaron Boodman from Greasemonkey said: "Songbird promises to be the Firefox of media players"

There are some issues with songbird that I hope get fixed soon.
For one it's very unMacOS of it to require an open window to work. I've gotten used to command+tabbing to an app and using keyboard shortcuts on it without losing my view.
Another thing is that the usual mediaplayer keyboard shortcuts don't work.
And well, why can't I just open a playlist, why does it ahve to be imported. :P
Other than that, I love it and have learned to do without those little perks.
jap, agree there is a lot of work to do - and they don't hide this. I think I'll use it for my research when doing with music groups.
Do you know where to get this theme: http://geekgirlxx.files.wordpress.com/2007/11/screenshot-songbird.png
(if possible on Mac OSX)
