Just a little more and the 3.0 version will finally be upon us

Jun 4, 2012 15:22 GMT  ·  By

Rhythmbox, an integrated music management application, originally inspired by Apple's iTunes and designed to work well under the GNOME desktop environment, is now at version 2.97.

Rhythmbox 2.97 brings us a little bit closer to version 3.0, but the developers are not confident about this either. There is wiggle room for a few more "unstable" versions.

Highlights of Rhythmbox 2.97:

· libmusicbrainz4 is now used for audio CD metadata; · A new, more compact header layout, including album art, is now used; · The artdisplay plugin has been deprecated; · Audio CD extraction speed has been fixed; · A new podcast subscription interface has been added; · Cover Art Transitions have been fixed; · Setting multiple tags with different values has been fixed.

A complete changelog can be found in the official announcement.
