The Mac OS X build of version 2 is due later today.br / br / The most notable new feature is support for the Amazon MP3 store — you can buy and download music from within Banshee — but unfortunately its only available in the Linux build at the moment (OS X and Windows support are planned, however). There have also been some significant improvements to artist, album, and queue interactions — and yes, you can finally right click a track, album or artist and select play after to insert it into the queue.br / br / Beyond actual playback, the user interface has been tidied up — it now looks a whole lot smarter — and the Ubuntu One Music Store and SoundMenu extensions have been made official. For a complete list of changes, additions and bug fixes, a href=http://download.banshee.fm/banshee/stable/LATEST-IS-2.0.0/banshee-2.0.0.newscheck the change log/a.br / br / When Windows support a href=http://downloadsquad.switched.com/2011/02/24/banshee-media-player-for-windows-goes-alpha/initially appeared in February/a, we found it rough around the edges and fraught with stability issues. With version 2, Banshee for Windows is still a bit unstable, but its shaping up to be a good alternative to Winamp, iTunes, or whatever other music library manager you use. Its almost as attractive as its GNOMEish brother, too!br / br / a href=http://banshee.fm/download/Download Banshee 2 for Linux and Windows/a (Mac OS X coming soon)p style=padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;a href=http://downloadsquad.switched.com/2011/04/06/banshee-music-player-now-works-in-windows-supports-amazon-mp3-d/Banshee music player now works in Windows, supports Amazon MP3 downloads/a originally appeared on a href=http://downloadsquad.switched.comDownload Squad/a on Wed, 06 Apr 2011 11:35:00 EST.
