“A team led by ex-Winamp-er Rob Lord today released a preview edition of Songbird,
a desktop media player that offers an open source alternative to
services like Apple’s iTunes and the Windows Media Player. Instead of
connecting to one locked store full of DRMmed goods, it can connect to
any and all available music (and video) on the internet.

Code brains behind the project include people who helped build
Winamp, Muse, Yahoo’s “Y! Music Engine” media player, and developers
from Mozilla Foundation. Initial release is for Windows only, with
editions for other OSes to follow in the coming weeks.

Built on the same platform as Firefox, Songbird acts like a
specialized web browser for music. It sees the online world through
MP3-colored glasses — it looks at an archive of public domain sound
files or a music store’s catalog, and displays available media for you.”

It will definitely crash though. So, interesting, but. Would be cool if it worked as a player for embedded content too on a web page. Not sure if it does though. here’s a download mirror, and another. Some early reviews on this digg thread.

1. Turn off your computer.
2. Get yourself a damp cloth, so that you don’t scratch your screen.
3. Apply pressure to the area where the dead pixel is. Do not put pressure anywhere else, as this may make more dead pixels.
4. While applying pressure, turn on your computer and screen.
5. Remove pressure and the dead pixel should be gone. This works
   as the liquid in the liquid crystal has not spread into each little
   pixel. This liquid is used with the backlight on your monitor, allowing
   different amounts of light through which give off different colours.
