Exaile - Music Heaven

I've found it - musical heaven on Linux .
Created on 16th February 2007 07:52 AM. Python | Linux

Exaile is pretty much a drop in replacement for Amarok . I've always liked Amarok, particularly for the cover art, smart playlists and general music management, but I can't deny there's something unpleasant about running a native KDE app on Gnome. Exaile is written in Python, GTK-based, and has all the features and smoothness of Amarok - but for Gnome. Love it, love it, love it. Having tabbed playlists so you can have multiple open at the same time also seems like a big improvement on Amarok as well.

Instructions for install on Ubuntu here .

Edit [2007-02-21]: After some issues with Exaile not showing the album covers correctly and not being able to seek to a particular point in a Podcast, I'm currently trying out Listen instead. Will update in a few weeks based on how I get on...
