Re: [slim] Songbird

[Mark Lanctot]

I gotta wonder - what's with the Songbird logo 
bird farting?  :-D

It seems to be referencing something specific.  It 
appears everywhere the logo appears.

Examples:

http://69.90.210.150/themes//gespaa_customized/extn_birdmeditating.png

http://69.90.210.150/themes/gespaa_customized/dev_masthead.png

In that last image, they even have a specification 
  list pointing to the gas plume.  :-)

Regarding SlimServer/Squeezebox support, I tried 
the program out briefly yesterday and apart from a 
link to Slim's website, I didn't see anything 
specific.

Mind you, the program doesn't do anything I can't 
already do.  Although it looks very slick already, 
I uninstalled it.

I like the fact that it's open-source, based on 
Firefox, and free.  I'll keep an eye on it and 
when it can do something 
SlimServer/foobar2000/Firefox can't, I'll install 
it again.

Re: [slim] Songbird

[markbelanger]

I'm curious about which direction and how tight you're picturing the 
integration.  But I like all of that.  I had a pretty good experience
with Songbird on the first try - the artist flickr images were really
nice.

I think it would be nice to have it as a desktop control.

Re: [slim] Songbird

I have been playing with Songbird for a few days now. I like where it is
headed, and it is much better (on a windows machine) than sluggish
iTunes.

It would be very good to have a songbird integration like iTunes, as
Songbird recognises more formats in the library (including FLAC).

Re: [slim] Songbird Is Out

[Mark Lanctot]

I haven't been able to get this site to load this 
morning.  Mostly server resets, although I once 
got a MySQL error.

Is it a problem on my end or are you guys also 
having problems?

I wanted to find out if/how much they were 
charging for the software.

I'm getting simple connection timeouts.  Most likely just load from the 
hordes wanting to download the app.  (There's a highly ranked mention on 
Digg).

Re: [slim] Songbird Is Out

[ron thigpen]

Yes, they've been "Dugg" (or "Slashdugg", your preference).

There's a bunch of discussion, and also links to some mirrors of the 
installer, at the Digg page.




BTW, this is the v0.1.0 release, and all proper disclaimers and 
expectation controls were apparently exercised.  There's even a fat, 
black, little cartoon bird mascot depicted in post-nosedive "splat" 
posture. And yet, predictably, there are many comments about the current 
state of quality.
