On Windoze, Amarok2 will compete with that:

@Robin: Sure, just like in Amarok 1.4. We’ve always had that data just never used it like you suggest. Something we should definitely consider however.

Does the new database schema also include a “date added” field?

I think it’s useful, for example when I get new music, I want to listen to it more than to other music. With this field, I don’t have to manually manage a “new music” playlist but can use an intelligent one.

Sweet!

You guys are polishing A2 into the music app to beat on any system (and now any OS). Looking forward to my covers (I loves me good cover collection, even with false positives).

Thanks for all the awesome work. The only thing rocking harder than Amarok2 is the devs behind it.

I use Linux but my co-workers and friends Windows. When Amarok 2 is ported to Windows they will get to use another great OSS application, making the conversion to Linux far easier!(Why use Windows if you already use Firefox, OpenOffice, Amarok, K3b, VLC etc??)
Keep up the good work!

Yay, covers! (finally )
I’ll try to test it tomorrow
