Songbird was developed by Mozilla, the same people who created Firefox and Thunderbird. So already you know that it's going to be a quality program. In fact, it has a very similar UI layout to Firefox.
Some of the features Songbird includes:
- Out-of-the-box iPod support, for ALL OS's
- Tabbed browsing (In a music player, wtf?)
- Recursive folder scanning, for easier importing of music
- Regular updates, much like Firefox.

Note: On linux, you will need the GStreamer plugins, (you probably already have them). If you don't have them, you can easily install them.
For Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-plugins-good gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-fluendo-mp3For Gentoo:
emerge -av gstreamer gst-plugins-base gst-plugins-xvideo gst-plugins-x gst-plugins-gconf gst-plugins-gnomevfs gst-plugins-alsa
AND
emerge -av gst-plugins-ugly gst-plugins-faad gst-plugins-ffmpeg gst-plugins-flac gst-plugins-lame gst-plugins-mad gst-plugins-ogg gst-plugins-vorbis gst-plugins-mpeg2dec gst-plugins-theora gst-plugins-faac
So what are you what are you waiting for?? GET IT NOW!!!
