Best music player ever gets an update

I caught Song­bird’s updated (back in June) but hadn’t paid atten­tion to what was new with it. I wrote about the pre­vi­ous update here and loved the fact that Song­bird finally got watched folders. Well, it seems that in this latest update there was one sig­ni­fic­ant new fea­ture (for me).

Song­bird added an Equal­izer. This is great espe­cially when you’re work­ing with ‘less than audi­o­phile’ com­puter speak­ers at work

A couple of other new fea­tures to note:

Media Import­ing / Export­ing
Add media to Song­bird by import­ing from your file sys­tem or iTunes. Export your tracks and playl­ists back into iTunes.

Lib­rary Files Organ­iz­a­tion
Auto­mat­ic­ally organ­ize the files con­tained in your lib­rary. Con­sol­id­ate your media in one loc­a­tion. Cus­tom­ize the struc­ture of the folder and file name based on metadata con­tained in every track.

Now Apple’s iTunes appears to be get­ting bet­ter (esp. with iTunes 9) …and I’ll soon be diving into it in a big way, but for me, cur­rently, Song­bird is the my player of choice.
