I don't think you should disparage it just because it is a mono app.  Also
big bloated is a subjective term.  I don't know the internals of Banshee but
it is a pretty nice app with some nice features.  It isn't for me, but I
recognize that it is good to have choice.  Without Banshee who will we
compete with? :-)

Ubuntu may have decided to go with Banshee but they did bring us the Music
store which is pretty nice.  We shouldn't take such decisions personally and
who knows perhaps we will be on even keel later.  Right now, let's focus on
making Rhythmbox is the best music player on Gnome 3.  There are some
awesome stuff that Jonathan and others have done in notifications that I
think is going to be really awesome.

I'm fairly sure that a number of Ubuntu people will continue with
Rhythmbox.  After all, you have many years of Ubuntu people using Rhythmbox
they have a lot of metrics on music,ratings and what not that they would
have to start all over again with.  So perhaps new users will use Banshee
but existing people will probably still continue to use Rhythmbox since
they've invested a lot in that music player.
