Today I discovered a new media player called Songbird (by Mozilla), and it is awesome.

Visually it looks almost identical to iTunes (which I’m not sure is legal), functionally it has many more features and is customizable via plug-ins. It also features iPod syncing (which if not included would have been a deal breaker) that I have yet to try. All in all seems like a good alternative. I plan using it for a week or so before I make up my mind but so far so good.
