Re: [Banshee-List] Which Banshee

Bertrand,
  Thanks for the response. Does Banshee have a 'rolling" distro like Linux Mint XFCE? If not, what is involved in an upgrade.

Thanks,
Dick

I don't know what your exact needs are, or what distinction you make
between a jukebox and a media player, but after a quick look at the
J.River Jukebox, it seems it has a lot in common with Banshee.
You can learn more about Banshee here :

Banshee doesn't have "editions", but we release a new version every 6
months. I'd advise you to get the latest version available for your
distribution. I hope you'll enjoy it !

Cheers,
