Re: [Banshee-List] Best backup for Banshee

It's not non-proprietary, but JRivers began introducing their Media Centre 19 on 1 October. It has been through a bunch of versions, but they're continuing to work on it. I began using their Media Jukebox about 12 years ago and was loath to switch to Linux until they developed a version for Linus (I rune LMDE). Their Mac version introduced earlier this year was a hit, and a lot of us have been waiting for the Linux Version. If you have a Windows OS anywhere, you can download the working Windows version and see what it will look like when they perfect the Linux one.
Of interest, you can download the 8.400 from JRivers Interact Wiki using WINE. You can do it and run it without the license since the features which it loses when this Windows program is downloadedto Linux don't work even with thelicense. Also, there is a FREE Media Jukebox 14 there (which has to be run with WINE). The smartlists can be very easily set up using artist, album, and genre. And you can make multiple genre smartlists and add and shuffle smartlists to "Playing Now." And you can exclude  genres (Christmas) for example.in some of the lists you'd like to play in the summer. Linux license is 1/2 off (about $25). The lack of a program which could do many of the things JRivers programs have is the chief reason I still have Windows XP hanging around. And I've tried a passel of Linux players.
