It’s all in the details man. All of it. Okay not all of it, but a whole huge honkin lot of it.

I had added some Relient K albums to my playlist, but I wanted them higher in the list (right under Run Kid Run) so I selected and dragged them upwards. What did my eyes behold? Something I didn’t expect. I stuck the cover art from the albums right there next to the cursor.

How cool is that?

Now, I don’t know if this essentially useless feature is in any other music program, but it’s got me dragging stuff around and making little collages out of cover art.

You can click through for a full-desktop screenie if you really want to.

I just updated my install of Amarok, which is possibly the greatest music player / jukebox ever. I’d heard alot about the new version, most of it being about the new native capability to play last.fm radio streams without any hacks.

I have to say, I like the new version, it’s gotten a bit of a facelift and somethings have changed. I like the fact that your collection has alphabetic dividers, it makes it easier to find artists.

The site claims that it has added support for MTP devices, but I haven’t hooked my precious Zen MicroPhoto up to it yet. Anyway, just putting up a post recommending the new Amarok.
