If only for the artwork

I guess that's how the birds hit the really deep notes.

Which looks like a negative image of iTunes.

Oh. My. Fucking. God.

Possibly the least intuitive interface EVER.

Looks nice, seems to handle well enough, but the UI needs someone to design it, not vomit buttons and icons at a window.


Edit: to clarify as a media player, the basics are all easy to find and stuff, but i made a playlist, then it took 2 mins to actually /find/ the playlist i'd made.

Songbird's quite a good looking piece of kit. Not sure I'd use the multimedia part often enough for it to replace Firefox for me, but I'd be interested in what people think of it.

actually, according to the constructs and principles of HCI (human computer interface/interaction) it's actually a very good example of usability, although what the arrows on the top right do is unclear and the whole thing seems a little cluttered, but given the amount of screen space they wanted to use i think its a very good design.

Kind of reminds me of the first time i used winamp
