- Yahoo Music Jukebox is a pretty neat app. Before WMP11 I used it as my main player, but now I just do not see the point, unless you are buying music from Yahoo. Hasn't yahoo had DRM free stuff for a while?

- Considering Yahoo Music Jukebox is Musicmatch, and Musicmatch was out years before iTunes was even developed, I'd say iTunes ripped off Musicmatch

- Yea but music match looked nothing like itunes then. Since itunes came out, it's slowly morphed into a cheapo clone...

- There are better programs then iTunes. I dont like installing MAC software on my pc. iTunes takes up too much memory and needs to convert all your files first. I have been using Media Monkey which is great and you can right click on a song and download the album art right from Amazon. it organizes your music also and tags everything properly.

- I am quite sure you had a point, unfortunately though...you didn't make it.

- lostOnes,
I think you were just to slow to catch it. McoreD was asking if it automatically organized music folders. Like renames, moves and deletes the old folders when a song is modified or deleted.
I haven't seen a feature in Yahoo!'s Jukebox like that. That's one of the great features of iTunes.

- I am desperate for a new media player and I can't find one that doesn't suck. It shouldn't be this difficult.

- I think Windows Media Player is good and I use Media Monkey to organize and tag my songs.

I'm using WMP11 right now, but it kinda just "sucks less than the rest". iTunes doesn't handle large libraries well so that won't work, and Foobar ...well, I don't feel like having to fight with my media player that much. I'll give Media Monkey a shot now.
