Yeah...I registered MediaMonkey in july, hoping I would be able to throw the piece of cr_p that is iTunes aside and get something useful for both iPod-management and music-playing.
I'm sad to say that MediaMonkey, right now, is worse than iTunes.
The non-beta version does not support Unicode, and since ~33% of my collection have unicode filenames/tags that is a must for me. So that forces me to use the alpha/beta (whatever)
Well, right now the latest version is completely unusable. If I open up MediaMonkey and browse to my music-folder, which I keep on a network share, MM refuses to play anything. Sometimes I can get a song or two to play if I click half a dozen times on it, sometimes not at all...
Also, the library...I have set MM to scan my nusic-folder for changes on startup...Since I installed MM my library have been completely empty. I can see that MM traverses my music-folders and scans, but the library remains empty...
Well, I could go on, but since these two things makes the program completely useless I might as well stop..
And to paraphrase ebay-buyers; "C-, will not buy again..."
