Aqua-Soft ForumsTheyre all pretty much at the same stage of developement. This poll is really just to see If I have enough people using iSongs to continue developing it.

Your Favorite ITunes Clone?
I like both namp, and isongs. Each one is a little different.
You know it's funny because I remember a while ago on the boards someone suggested that we had a forum that developers could chit chat on the projects they were working on, so that there wouldnt be an overlapping release of two identical prgrams. I think the way this worked out, is proof of why soemthing like that might work.
Alilm I love all of your releases, and whether you should continue deveolping this, I dont know what to tell you. i like it and use it. Namp still has some bugs that make it difficult to use as my main player, while your isongs is stable enough to use.
Alilm, all of them are in fairly early stages of development and all still need a lot done. I think it may be a little early to rule out or even choose a 'default' player until they're all in good working order. I know this doesn't help you but that's how it is with me.
I'll continue to use MrAquas iTunes until the others get the stability and ease of use of that app. It doesn't have many features.. you drag songs onto it and it goes great, it sounds great and it doesn't crash or eat my computer for lunch.

Having 2 of the same program at the same time isn't bad, in fact it offers choice. Look at the dock programs for example...none of them have taken the crown,really...people use one of the 3 for personal/performance reasons.
Imagine if this mentality of avoiding 'overlapping' was adopted when the internet was just beginning to boom:
Netscape: "Hi, Microsoft? Hi, this is Bob from Netscape. We didn't know if you knew this or not, but we already started making a web browser."
Microsoft: "Why no, I didn't know that Bob! I'll call Jerry down in development and ask him to stop development on Explorer right away!"
Netscape: "Sorry if this is any trouble for you..."
Microsoft: "Oh, no problem! This actually works out good- now we'll have plenty of people to work on the next version of solitaire! Thanks for the heads up, Bob."
Netscape: "Sure thing. Have a great day!"
Microsoft: "You too. Bye!"
Netscape: "Bye!"
Now that would just be silly.
Same principle goes for here. Alilm, just because someone released a new app doesn't mean eveyone's gonna stop using yours. People will always have preferences, and for some, that preference just might be iSongs. Keep on coding!

Very good point, never really thought of it like that!
