Rhythmbox â Useful for iPod Users

,----[ Quote ]
| Iâve been rediscovering Rhythmbox and its 
| features. I know I havenât really given it 
| much chance before as Listen was more 
| lightweight and it pretty much worked well 
| with my netbook. So now that Iâm using my old 
| laptop for work more often, I decided to 
| mainly use the default apps on Ubuntu Karmic 
| Koala.

Minitube Streams YouTube Videos Right to Your Desktop -- No Flash Required

,----[ Quote ]
| YouTube is a great service but its cluttered 
| user interface leaves a lot to be desired. 
| Minitube is a solid open source YouTube 
| viewing client that gives users a way to 
| search and watch videos without all the 
| visual distractions.

Build a Silent, Standalone XBMC Media Center On the Cheap

,----[ Quote ]
| You won't find a better media center than
| the open-source XBMC, but most people don't
| have the space or desire to plug a noisy PC
| into their TV. Instead, I converted a cheap
| nettop into a standalone XBMC set-top box.
| Here's how.

XBMC Media Center

,----[ Quote ]
| Strangely, XBMC works less smoothly as a
| standalone product than an application on
| top of one of Linux distributions.
