Last month, we curled up with a pair of headphones and a 1.0 release candidate of Songbird, an open-source media player based on Mozilla technology. As a cross-platform music player built with Mozilla’s trademark extensibility in mind, Songbird soared with its integration of services like concert ticket notifiers, lyric downloading, and artist bios. Today the official Songbird 1.0 is shipping, and it even supports DRM-protected iTunes Store files, so we took another look at the feature roadmap and how the final version shaped up.

Using songbird reminds me of Java.
Great idea, horrible implementation.
needs some work…most of the extension do not have updates for the newest release, and thus they do not work….and the ones that do work are fairly glitchy…and it sucks the doo out of my memory…what a let down.
