BeoSound 6, and I&amp;#39;ve recently get a hardisk from a friend with 68.000
songs! The problem is the media player on the computer.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Have can I manage all that music on a easy and userfriendly way? &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have for some day now tried these;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;BeoPlayer&lt;/strong&gt;,- that really was a joke. &lt;em&gt;Don`t waste your time on it&lt;/em&gt;. Its to simple and its very slow&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Itunes&lt;/strong&gt;,-&amp;nbsp; that was made for making money, and only for Ipod owners. &lt;em&gt;Dont waste your time on it...&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;strong&gt;WinAmp&lt;/strong&gt; that work perfect, but are a little&amp;nbsp; complicated to use. You will&amp;nbsp; like it when you figure out, how it works.. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;SongBird&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now the FireFox people ( from Mozilla) have just realised&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; a new media player called &lt;strong&gt;SongBird &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I will download it now , but I can already see/read that this properly will bee a media player that will be the best choice for many of us. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;
Many people are already using&amp;nbsp; the great browser Firefox,&amp;nbsp; (they will
never change browser again), and if the&amp;nbsp; philosophy are the same,
this&amp;nbsp; little songbird is a &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;killing&amp;nbsp; eagle&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt; !&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Do you also like the simple design, then I can tell that&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;all&lt;/em&gt; Mozilla products works at the same way.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;Get SongBird from here&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;http://getsongbird.com/download/&lt;h4&gt;New Features&lt;/h4&gt;

intuitive. We&amp;rsquo;ve improved drag-and-drop throughout the application and
worked to optimize music management vs. web browsing experiences.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="clear"&gt;&lt;img alt="Album Artwork" class="thumb left" src="http://files.songbirdnest.com/0.7-screenshots/0.7.album-art.png" /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Album Artwork&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Note: If you are upgrading from an older version of Songbird, be sure to get the &lt;a href="http://addons.songbirdnest.com/tag/recommended?order=last-updated"&gt;Concerts and Last.fm add-ons&lt;/a&gt; so you can enjoy all the new features we&amp;rsquo;re talking about!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
