Aqua-Soft Forums[link] Beoplayer
Yeah, I tried it, pretty ordinary but it does look very nice indeed.
i found it annoying.
Okey!
I've been using it for about a day now, and this is what i think so far!
(Tryin' to review it)
It's a pretty basic player, without the advanced functions, but with a different look.
Like with most of B&Os' products you either love it or hate it, i love it.
It follows the style of othe B&O products, and they kindof think outside of the box.
Ii's probably not for the true AquaHolics, but then i'm a BeoHolic!
On the + side.
It's got a minimalistic and nice look, nice animations

It's Bang & Olufsen on my desktop! (means it looks good)

I tried this program out a long time ago. Saw it on ZDnet.com. I hated the interface, and everything else about it. Love the Bang-Olufsen speakers - hate the app. iTunes is still pretty good. But, for all other media files, I just stick with the Creative MediaSource player 2.0 that came with my SoundBlaster Audigy 2 ZS soundcard.
