G'day,

On behalf of the Rhythmbox developers, I'm proud to announce the fourth
release of the Rhythmbox 0.9 series, which includes a large
number of fixes, improvements and new features. Notable new features
include a play queue, GStreamer 0.10 support, full remote gnome-vfs
support, much improved DAAP support, library "watching" and support for
mass-storage audio players.
