I'd really like to see Windows Media Player in the list of applications
you reviewed to get ideas. As a recent first time user of Media Player 9
(I think it's still in beta) it has a pretty intuitive interface that we
could probably get some good ideas from ... Most notably it takes a
"Tree-view" approach to what rhythmbox currently uses separate boxes
for. It's tree has top levels of:

* Now Playing
* Artist
* Album
* Genre
* Radio
* My Playlists

[Or similar - but you get the idea]
