Keep an eye on Amarok. Leaving its file browser on the wrong "screen"
will have it thrashing back at 60% CPU time.
I really, really wish they'd stolen the default iTunes interface, which
has a list of tracks and can either be a library or a playlist. Keeping
my tunes and my playlists separate like they do in amaroK seems pretty
odd, and makes it harder to find the music I want to make a playlist.
They could also learn from Apple's UI team in terms of smart playlists :)
It also doesn't read my album art id3 tags! Agh!
