Songbird enters Beta!  Go and get it!

Songbird, the long in developement ultimate media system for cross platform audio/visual joy has entered Beta!  The new release features a new UI, faster media scanning, drag and drop goodness, a first run wizard (with EULA – is that really a feature?), smart playlists and album art.  Wee!

You made some good points here.i had to take a second to write and thank you for introducing me the information. Keep up the good work. Having been an actor and a writer for so long – 20 years or so – I felt that it would be daft to go to one’s grave without having directed. It’s a natural extension of writing and acting, and so I knew it would happen one day.
