Just curious if anyone trying it out. It’s my ongoing mission to find a jukebox/music software that I don’t despise. I hate iTunes and find it’s interface to be average and it’s functions to be very limiting. Plus, poor design led to the complete loss of my MP3 folder with an earlier version. Musicmatch is expensive and clunky. I love the way it handles ID3 tagging and library management but everything else about it is cumbersome and has too much overhead. I used to like Winamp but the latest version is buggy and no longer plays nice with my iPod. Windows Media Player was always pretty smooth, fast and bug-free but it lacked many of the features I liked and it didn;t handle library management worth a damn.
Currently I’m trying out the Beta for version 11 and I like the look of it and it’s a big change from WMP 10. The Library interface is much more robust to the point that parts are cumbersome. I installed a DFX plug-in and it sounds almost as good as Winamp with DFX. Just installed it last night so I’m still figuring it out and I haven’t tested it’s iPod compatibility, but I’m interested if anyone else has any impressions.
