I’m glad to see that 1.0 had been launch. The beta version has been great for listening to at work.

Support for the Samsung YP-P2 is broken in this .7 release. Looking forward for a fix.

What a shame for those of us that can’t afford to upgrade our computers to Intel. For me, Songbird was the last best hope for a media player that could approach itunes in terms of functionality, whilst supporting the full range of audio playback codecs. I’m deeply disappointed that i and fellow ppc mac users are now basically condemned to wait and for either enough money to upgrade machine or some miracle worker to create an Amarok port. Thanks for wasting my time and bandwidth.

Pete,

I use Songbird instead of iTunes. I use Linux, which I prefer to both Mac and Windows and Songibrd gives me the AV features I want, as well as supporting my ipod. I also prefer the open source nature of the system, the ability to effectively search and obtain music through the web, and its useability. Much like I would rather use Firefox than Explorer — I prefer Songbird to iTunes. The program is a little buggy still, but it does everything I want and it does it very well.

This new update is awesome except for one thing — it is flat out killing my machine. It is maxing out my CPU and my RAM — music freezes at about the 2 sec point, and my entire computer freezes and locks. I am using an old machine for my Linux platform (Ubuntu 8.04 on a Gateway solo 9100, 650mhz, 500MB), but I never had this problem on Songbird .6. As a matter of fact, despite my computer’s old age, Songbird .6 ran flawlessly.

Is this a common error? Has a bug been noted and started?
