Not quite sure what to think about it...but if it'll have tight integration with such web services as Last.fm (I'm still waiting for guessing what to play next based on few songs already played BTW) and MusicBrainz, why not...

It does look promising but it looks very similar to iTunes. Now I'm not a legal expert but is it possible Apple could get involved if this player takes off because it looks so similar to iTunes?

The whole copycat me too syndrome ("or blatant compliment") is everywhere, not just in software. It's visible in cars, applicances, food, music, etc., which in reality isn't such a bad thing since it's what people are used to, albeit unoriginal. QUOTE (Societal Eclipse @ Dec 26 2005, 11:37 PM) It looks nice but at the same time still too much for me. I can't recall anytime I needed all that information when I couldn't just open a browser myself. Valid point. I've never used a media player with all that going on in it which is probably the underlying reason why I don't use WMP -- other than not liking it. -------------------- Complexity of incoherent design.
