Anyone else using this music library app? It's made by mozilla and has a similar layout to iTunes. Like firefox, you can add new skins or 'feathers', extensions and other add-ons. You can use the built in browser to view websites and play videos etc.

It's a great player and has become my new favourite

The current version is 0.4 and is still in development.

Have not actually used it, but it has been in the "Audio/Radio Players" section in the Useful Freeware Utilities thread for quite some time...

Just noticed you're in Newry...

I used it a while ago when it was 0.3 or something. It was OK then but I had some problems with MP3 reading and using my iPod. Might give 0.4 a go.

Its got great potential, and i have used it, but at present Media Monkey is much more powerful as a dukebox application...

Looking through the extensions there is an addon for iPod capability.
