While I really dislike a lot of things about Amarok, particularly its UI design, I love it in that it's a media player that seems to constantly strive to add new, innovative features that let its users do new things with the music that they love.
I'm wondering why its code name is "Slipstream", though. Is that a name that refers specifically to a new feature? Or are all Amarok releases so colorfully titled?
(As an aside: If you haven't listened to the Mike Oldfield composition Amarok that the program gets its name from, remedy that immediately. It's an absolutely stupendous hour of music, perhaps my favorite album ever. Excerpts on Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fs3NgTIXqfc)
